One question I have never been able to get a clear answer on, is what performance am I going to get for with a workstation card in comparison to a games card of the same price.
For instance, If I was to pay $400 for a top of the line games card, what would I expect to get from a $400 workstation card.?
Is a 400$ workstation card going to draw my 3ds max stuff faster and clearer and handle more polys than a $400 top of the range 3d games card? Because $400 is nothing when it comes to top of the line workstation cards.?
Would the workstation card (of equivelent price) be anywhere near as good at rendering 3d games???
It seems to me that workstation cards are just overly priced games cards with a driver tweak.
I guess my question comes down to..
If I have 400$ and do both games and fairly intensive 3d work, would it be worth considering a workstation card?
Thanks
