Hi so I have a computer I built and its for gaming at first, but now Im starting to do some graphics and video editing on this computer lately and its not fast enough for me.

Not SLI BTW

The box for the GPU(760) also says minimum system requirements "Minimum 500 W or greater PSU (with a minimum 12 V current rating of 30 A)"

I heard that the Quadro is really good for graphics, video editing but I still like to game too. So I have a few questions

Will the drivers for both graphics card interfere?
Will it make a big difference?

Specs:
i7-4771K
8 GB of Ram
MOBO: MSI z87-g45
GPU: MSI gtx 760
PSU: Corsair CX750

Anymore question needed just let me know

Hello,

As your primary goal is gaming, stick with the GTX760. Please be sure that the lower-than-expected performance is the video card's fault (could be also the HDD/SSD or insufficient RAM).

Go for Quadro only if you have problems with image quality (Quadros has ECC memory and double precision computing), but take into account that Quadro 4000 is an outdated card (it is based on GTX5xx series, probably a modified GTX560). The newest cards, Quadro Kxxxx, are much powerful and you can game relatively OK, having more CUDA cores, but are also based on the older cards (GTX6xx). And the price, oh my...

I don't know how well the 2 sets of drivers will work together; I tried to pair an 8800GTX with an FX4600 (they were essentially the same...
