are there any reason to justify buying an expensive quadro card for photoshopping?
Only if you use a 10-bit display, but other than that I would say no.
whats the exact technical relation between 10-bit display and a quadro card which can not be done with a normal GTX card.
and i must mention here a phrase by nvidia company;
"The Mercury graphic Engine brings performance gains to all the GPUs supported today in Adobe Creative Suite® 6 software. Photoshop CS5 automatically detects NVIDIA® GeForce® or NVIDIA® Quadro® GPUs to enable accelerated features."
so it seems the features are also avaiable in GTX and other modern cards also.
what you think?

I literally just had a conversation with my boss about this, and Photoshop CS5 (and IIRC CS6) ONLY had cuda acceleration support, which is one of the reasons our PC's are running NVidia quadros for Photo editing. Later versions of photoshop have OpenGL acceleration, making AMD gpus viable for photoshop gpu acceleration. Prior to CS5, I dont believe there was any GPU acceleration from cuda or OpenGL.

OpenCL or OpenGL? I think you mean OpenCL.

OpenGL acceleration has been offered in Photoshop since CS4. However it is only used for scaling images real-time and SOME filters. Cuda only applies to Adobe Premiere and After Effects. It does nothing for Photoshop and is useless. You can get by with most IGP's.
Here is a list of what OpenGL does.

So unless you are doing any video editing or 3D animation a Quadro or FirePro card is USELESS for Adobe Photoshop.
ALSO ATI support for OpenGL is hit or miss. Stay with NVIDIA for now.
No he means OpenGL for Photoshop.

Really? I was told cuda cores can be used for acceleration in photoshop, for scaling and filters (albeit slightly pointless, because if you're using lots of filters you're doing it wrong). Maybe my boss just doesnt know what he's talking about.

No that's OpenGL. Cuda is for Video compression and such. Cuda MIGHT be used for some of the 3D plug-ins for Photoshop. That I'm not sure but the base application doesn't use it at all AFAIK. Crazyeyes might be able to tell ya.
