OMG NVIDIA! you upset me to no end! so i was looking at workstation card prices and stats with a friend of mine at his apt. And another friend of his walked in and said, "why are you looking at workstation cards?" I told him i need to build a 3d rendering PC. and he said.."are you stupid? just get a Geforce card for a fraction of the price and softmod it to run Quadro Drivers" im like.....wtf is softmodding?
Apparently Gaming cards and workstation cards share equivalent hardware. Ie my Geforce 8400GS is the same card as Quadro FX370 worskstation card. Difference is the drivers. All i have to do is use a program to trick the graphics card to run a different driver.
Well FUCK ME TO HIGH HEAVEN! i was all ready to put down $1200 for a workstation card too! and now your telling me i can get a superclocked GTX580 for a fraction of my budget and run a $3000+ Quadro 6000 graphics driver? I can run games AND 3d programs at the same time?
CHRIST!
