Bit the bullet, got the new video card.

Accepted the will of the collective and snagged the GTX 1060 6GB, which should help. Also grabbed 2 8GB memory cards for the upgrade, thanks to a lucky combination of end of month funding refills and Amazon points. Hopefully, they’ll both appear tomorrow, so I can take them over to my computer guy Friday and have him install everything.

…I pretty much have to, at this point.  I keep going over there, and he keeps finding ways to do the job for about one-tenth the expected price. I have to throw some business his way that’s worth his time, if only for my own honor’s sake.

Anyway, thanks for the computer advice.  Much obliged.
