 Hi,

I work for an architect firm in Maryland, we are in the process of upgrading our workstation and originally we were going to get the GTX 295 cards but one of the other employees suggested that we should go with the Quadro cards instead because that is what they are designed for. I did a little research on my own and still not sure which would be better for our applications. If you have any input on this it would be greatly appeciated Thanks in advance

 we are using Revit Architecture 2009 on a 64 bit system)

The Quadro cards are extremely nice when using Max for me but with Revit I get the same performance basically. Keep in mind though Revit 2010 is now built on Direct3D and no longer uses OpenGL so you will see signifigant increases in performance with workstation cards as well as gamer cards.
