Hi, I'm planning to add the nvidia 4000 to my mac pro 2008 (3,1). The processors are 2x2.8 ghz I've 14gb RAM and two graphic cards: ATI 5770 (1gb), connected to a Cintiq 22hd, and an ATI 3870 (512mb) connected to a cinema display 23'. I mount three hard disks (SATA). I mostly use: (cs6) Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, Premiere, After Effects, Soundbooth (Apple) Apple motion 4 (3d software) Daz Studio (I'd like to use CUDA for installing OCTANE for the rendering), Cinema 4d, ZBrush.
Do you think that comparing to my actual setup, could I see good benefits (more speed) in using the apps listed above, if I would mount the quadro 4000? Thanks in advance to everyone that will post a reply! Hi, first of all thanks for the super fast reply! So you're approving my possible upgrading to quadro 4000. But you suggest a better EVGA 680 mac edition: I did not know this card was supported by the macpro 2008 3,1!
Wireless mobile utility for pc. And, to be hones, I did not know this card either It seems very much more powerful in terms of cuda cores: 1536 cuda cores of this card compared to the 236 of the quadro! It also has 2gb vRam. So why a pro should buy a quadro 4000 instead of this one? I'm really trying to understand it. From what I got till now, the geforce should be more gaming oriented, while the quadro should keep better the usage for the rendering, that can overheat your card too much if the scene is too high in details.

Is that right? So this should be the reason for buying a quadro instead? The power consumption? As a matter of facts, I see this card has a higher power consumption than the quadro. Professional is a matter of drivers & marketing The quadro 4000 card is an older card that has been introduced years ago.

The big difference in cuda cores tells you that. You are right with your assessment that the EVGA 680 is more of an all-good-around card and not dedicated only to the 'professional' market. However in my personal opinion, this is all pure marketing. Only a very small amount of people need that bit of unique features from a quadro card really.
