Why does people say what Graphics Card they have if Keyshot doesn't use GPU?

Hey, I've took a look into the Benchmark category and I see lots of people showing what Graphics Card they have, why they do that if Keyshot is only CPU rendering?

I want to build a new PC for rendering in Keyshot/C4D, I really need a expensive GPU or I can go with just a normal cheap one (for connecting the monitor)?

Thanks!

KeyShot doesn't use the GPU for rendering.
If you don't have a need for a powerful GPU in C4D or other tools in your workflow, then a cheap one will do just fine. :)
Better to spend the money on the fastest CPU(s) you can get...
