I'm helping a friend out who has a doctorate in 3d animation.
I was looking at the Quadro FX 4600, but that thing costs $1500.
I'm thinking about just getting her the GeForce 8800GTS 512MB. I'm quite certain that's still quicker than anything she's used so far.
How would the quadro fx 4600 compare with the geforce 8800gts 512MB?
If it's only 2-3 quicker, I'd just have her get the 8800gts. But if it's significantly quicker, then it'd probably be worth it for her to pony up the extra cash to buy it, since money isn't that big of an issue fo her. But at the same time, she doesn't want to spend an extra thousand+ for something that's not going to give her significant gains.
