I have recently tested Geforce 8800GTX, Quadro 4600
and latest a GeForce 7950GT on the same dual quadcore machine with interesting
but weird results.
All had the latest appropriate drivers and the
Quadro set to Soft XSI and I used a test scene which I posted earlier. The
7950 was faster than the Quadro 4600, which I plainly dont understand, and the
8800 is very slow - even slower than my older 7800GTX on my old
workstation.
I am about to purchase this new workstation and
would like to put the fastest card in it for the money and was about to go for
the Quadro because it is fast - about 2-3 times faster than the 8800, but then
my latest test with the 7950 muddled the waters. It is 1/6th of the price of the
Quadro and faster. I am thinking they might not have optimized the drivers for
these newer cards for OGL yet, but they are not that new.
Question is if anyone here can offer any insigth
that might explain this difference?
