As long as you can meet the HW requirements, you will have my vote.
Agee with above…has my vote as long as…
I vote yes on a condition of HW upgrade.
+1 from me, In my case I bought the hardware after I was accepted
Just an idea the minimal requirement is RTX 2070, bear in mind that you can also buy it “second hand”
