Hello fabrice!

The 4600 has got a decent rep, but the newest firegl ati cards (v5600, v7600, v8600) are beating it in performance and price - I just don't know anyone who's using them with xsi to comment on the display drivers etc.

Is it for the company or personal? I picked up a dirt cheap quadro 4500 on ebay, always one option :)

cheers
matt

Hi list,
 
here we go again.
What would be your recommendations for a pro graphics card without paying 
top crazy price for an Quadro FX5600  ?
 
It would be used for all XSI general tasks ( model, anim, sim etc...) on medium to heavy scenes.
 
I read from older posts that the Quadro FX 4600 has good all round performance.
What about ATI cards ? Anyone using those ?
 
Is there still a huge performance/stability gap with Geforce cards ?
 
Thanks in advance ,
F.
