    Too bad you can't use a full size. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-028-_-Product $109.00 after rebate.

    RETIRED. NO JOB. NO MONEY. NO WORRIES!

    Crunched SETI Classic to the end.

    Just use pretty pictures with your proposal, will help the process along . I suggest using some swimsuit model pics too but I don't know if the female members will approve

    Or, pitch this card and when they look at you like you're crazy, come back with the much more reasonable 750 Ti...

    I'll call up Jenn Novielli to see if she will fly in.

    You don't need a pro type card? Do you use maya? Or just autocad?

    I would love to get something really heavy duty, but they wouldn't see the value in spending the money. No maya, plenty of autoCAD.

    I do know that the quadro drivers have software to better interface with 3d apps, but my experience is with maya, not autocad.

    although the cards have the same processor is under the hood, their duty cycles are drastically different. The pro cards are intended for accuracy. The gamer cards are intended for speed and frames per second.

    The analogy is,: as a Corvette and a pick up truck may actually have the same engine block under the hood, but their duty cycles are drastically different and they are tuned differently with regard to power band, suspension, etc.

    Makes total sense, and I understand. The only issue is of the 4 machines I am buying for, only mine does 3D on occasion.
