There hasn't been a single exclusively Tesla/Quadro chip so far. Ever.
They need volume to absorb R&D, so GF is almost mandatory as boxleitnerb hints.
Also, it has always been the other way around, salvaged parts were used for pro market, full for GF, with full chips coming to Pro later if ever. I think.
Then again there's a first time for everything.

because you are cheap and won't give them $3200, but you might $500?

The only calculation you need to worry about is Price per GPU. A 7bln transistor GPU costs BIG. Thats why 1 Tesla is $3200 EACH!
So why are they going to put them in a $500 desktop card?
