Hi,

after seeing the video tutorials and reading the features, I'm just a few keystrokes away from
purchasing, but before I commit, just need to know if the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870
in my new ASUS G73 will do the job(?)

I searched for supported gpus, and specifically for this one, but didn't see a list.
That would be a good thing for potential purchasers.

Octane looks so good, I'd even build a box around a supported gpu for it if I have to! :0

Ok, thanks, Colin.....was afraid of that....dang!

I'll just have to build a render machine for it.
