I'm just wondering about what card I should get for pretty much a beginner at 3D Animation. Ive already ordered a 3.06 P4, a gig of pc3500 memory, 2 120gig ata133's, and an asus p4g8x mobo. I know that the Nvidia Quadro line is the card for workstations, but they're insanely expensive for obvious reasons. My main question is that for 400 I can get a GeForce FX 5800 Ultra and it it probably going to be the biggest baddest card on the market as far as gaming goes. Would this card hold up for using things like maya and 3ds MAX?? So the comparison is a $400 Quadro card vs. a $400 GeForce FX card thats going to be hands down the best when it comes out. THanks a lot...
