Hey Fabrice,

 

I just got my new machine and it’s equipped with a Quadro FX 4600.

So far so good. Everything is smooth, be it XSI, Maya or MAX.

Cheers

MAC

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.
