What's the difference between a Quadro FX and an 8800+ besides a thousand dollars? Same GPU. I think they just add "For Video Editing" so they can charge the uninformed producers a dickload of cash money.

There is a big difference in geometry accuracy between the pro level graphic cards and the ones we use for gaming.

That being said, I have had more failures with Quadro based boards than any other component on the networks I manage.

I do not know if they still have issues, but that does tend to leave a rather unpleasant taste in ones mouth when you are paying over $1000 a board.

Plus, I simply cannot see how they can justify a street price of $7K for ANY board.

Start by looking at the picture, warranty, optimized for specific applications. Look at the 5 features listed.

Quadro - ability to run 4 desktop monitors from one single card iirc.

They are in essence a reworked version of a normal card but with larger frame buffers (such as 1.5GB for this card) added features (video output, workstation dimentions, warrenty), and special drivers.

On similar systems - 8800GTX ~12K, Quadro FX4600 ~10K, and Quadro FX5600 ~12K.

(find benches on exact systems is rare)

The sweet spot for indie movies these days is $1m - $8m budget. Nice workstation with SDI capabilities could be paid for quicky :)

The place where I freelance doesn't do jobs at this level, so a Quadro FX4600 (non SDI, $1500) would be nice... though with so many other upgrades that'll yield a bigger benefit, I'll stick with a standard GeForce (no beta drivers though, most of the time you'll lose accelerated previews).

There is a model with dual onboard GPUs that can be SLI'ed for quad.

They also have released "Quadro Plexes" which house the video cards externally.

Well these aren't made for gaming so there's no point comparing benches.

Except for the DCC'ers that also game :)

If I did more 3D work I'd love an FX4600. Certainly faster than my 8600GTS in games and is in a whole different league when it comes to modeling, etc.

Looks like one slot for the cooler than one slot for outputs professional cards need.

Get rid of that backplate, and that (handle?) on the one skinny side of the card, and it would look better...

That backplate is needed for the coaxial inputs/outputs and the handle is a support bracket to prevent the card from warping or bending due to weight and movement. All workstation cards are this length and have said handle to prevent any damage in shipping or use. Very handy to use.

Not to mention seeing how this is a hella expensive workstation card I would care less about looks as long as it worked day in and day out.
