Should I drop my Quadro FX 4600, 768 DDR for a GeForce GTX 550 Ti 1536MB DDR3?

I've got an HP xw8600 workstation which came with a Quadro FX 4600. Since I don't do any 3D work, I wonder if I should drop the Quadro FX 4600, 768 DDR video card for a regular and newer generation GeForce GTX 550 Ti 1536MB DDR3?

What do you think? Checking out the GPU load, it seems that the video card is hardly used in Photoshop... I've read that in order for Mercury to perform well it needs a video card with at least 1GB of RAM. Btw I'm not doing any 3D work, not in Photoshop, nor in other 3D programs. So I think the Quadro FX 4600 is pretty useless... am I right?
 
Yes it is useless if you are not doing any 3D work
would you mind mailing it to me if you dont want it :rolleyes:??
I´m still with my video card ON BOARD :cry:
I will cover shipping costs;)
