Check Ebay, there's a always someone who's selling a Quadro FX pulled from a workstation on it.

Hi All,
Sorry for the non XSI specific question, but in a way it's related :)

I'm especially eager to hear for the Linux users about this. I'm about
to do a little hardware upgrade. And even though I'm happy with my
Quadro4, it's a AGP and doesn't fit in the newer motherboards.

So... should I go with

a.) QUADRO FX 1500

or

b.) GEFORCE 7950GT

The quadro card is about 1.8 times more expensive, but given how long
my quadro4 has lasted in performance I'm almost willing to pay that
extra.

Any thoughts anyone?

regards
stefan andersson

p.s. ATI Linux users may also answer....

regards
stefan andersson
