It's a similar picture with Solidworks 2003 to 3D Studio Max. Although ATI lags behind in terms of graphics performance, the manufacturer still took third and fourth place in the overall score, thanks to the lower CPU load.

Buyers beware: In terms of percentages, the differences between NVIDIA and ATI are miniscule. On a purely subjective level, the FireGL X2 seems to be just as fast as the Quadro FX 3000
