Peredelka Geforce V Quadro Fx

The Quadro FX 580 was released less than a year after the GeForce 9500 GT, and so they are likely to have similar driver support for optimizing performance when running the latest games. Which should i buy an nvidia quadro fx 1800 or nvidia geforce 210 G for medium profile gaming. Started by Xs; Jun 27, 2018; Replies: 1; Graphics Cards.

Hi all, Yes, I know this is a tough question but I'm building a new system from scratch and am still flipping between video cards. I don't want to spend $1000 on a video card but in reading through all the posts and the knowledge base, the Nvidia Quadro FX is recommended.

Saying that, the GeForce appears better (faster) but I don't really know how the Quadro series differs from the GeForce or how it interfaces with VW (Spotlight). Nvidia Quadro FX 580: 512mb GDDR3 128-bit 25.6 GB/sec PCI-E 2.0 32 x CUDA cores Open GL 3.0 DirectX 10 VERSUS Nvidia GeForce GTX 560: 1gb GDDR5 256-bit 128 GB/sec PCI-E 2.0 336 x CUDA cores Open GL 4.2 DirectX 11 Thanks, Dave. For the GeForce series get the GTX570.

Best bang for the buck. Do not know how well if at all VW utilizes Quadro cards. I should think there would be something at VW website about this.

All you VW Gurus, please chime in. Most CAD software uses the CPU for the better /best renderings not the GPU (graphics card). This has been an on going issue with most CAD software.

It's just expensive to experiment with one-time-programmable parts. The EEPROMs in the Skyworth are socketed, so it's easy to swap them out. Skyworth hs7700 proshivka. So far, the only fixes in my modified firmware are to disable the cross color suppression and correct the chroma delay issue on the progressive component output. Even burning upgrade CD-Rs would be cheaper than the $10 a pop for two 27c020 EPROMs. If anyone in Hong Kong would like to help us try and obtain a firmware update CD from Skyworth (for any model player, not necessarily for the 1050p), that would be terrific.

I do hear that ACAD (harumph) does utilize the GPU. This is as it should be. What is the point of spending big money on a great graphics card if the software (CAD) will not utilize it? Imho taoist Edited July 10, 2011 by taoist.

Hi Dave As you've noticed, for the similar money, the Geforce is a lot more powerful than a Quadro based on the Cuda Cores (which is the most important). Also if you read on the net some people actually have hacks that will make their Geforce (certain cards) into a Quadro. So the main difference is firstly the drivers. The drivers of the Quadro card are meant to get more of the card. If you ignore cost for a moment and compare 2 equal 'Cude Cores' cards, the Quadro will be faster because of the Drivers. Nvidia has put something in the hardware so the drivers can only be used for the intended card but as I said there are hacks for certain cards where one can use Quadro drivers with a Geforce card. The other difference is the build of the card.

I haven't tested this myself but the Quadro cards are meant to be more durable. It's meant to run in a workstation for long stretches and it'll manage and cope with the stresses.

The Geforce card isn't meant for long runs at 100% usage all the time. You'll have to add things like liquid cooling, etc. I would suggest you go for a Gtx 560/570. I went for a Gtx560 with 2GB ram because if you use software like Octane Render, it will only use ram of the graphics card. Thanks for the replies! I'm adding my own, more-informed, two cents now: VW is built using the more 'consumer-grade' drivers for the GTX cards rather than the Quadro. The Quadro drivers are more based for the AutoCAD architecture and will generally NOT help with any performance on VectorWorks.

Also, Nvidia regularly updates the GTX series of drivers whereas the Quadro drivers are not updated as much because the core graphics architecture of AutoCAD-based products doesn't change as often. So the formal recommendation to me has been to go with the GTX series of cards. I building the new box today and will post reviews as soon as I can.

I'm not a 3D or HPC guy, but I've been tasked with doing some research into those fields for a possible HPC application. Reading benchmarks, comparisons and specs between nVidia Quadro and Geforce cards, it seems that for similar generation cards: • Quadro is 2x-3x the price of Geforce • hardware wise, the differences are not that great • in benchmarks (3ds Max, Maya and some others) Quadro cards are much better performing than Geforce ones Does anyone know what are the exact and precise technical differences that can cause such better performance? My speculation (and what can be generally read on the net), since the hardware is of similar specs, is that it's all in the drivers.
