Completely agree, the one only reason why somebody might get this card is to have a completely silent PC.

With video you might get some advantage from a good video card with the right software, but for photo, pretty much any card is overkill at this point. Maybe things will change in the future. A...

this looks perfect for my Hackintosh build. I just bought the MoBo and CPU from Microcenter, might as well go for this card as well.
If I don't game often (very rarely) but want to do some...

No, I wouldn't call it overkill at all -- especially if you'll be doing video editing.

If he's using Photoshop for photos, a good video card definitely helps.
If he's just using iPhoto, not as much. But movies will still be better.
