From what I've read, that's ended after 8k series cards.
No, there are no tricks for anything beyond the old G80 chip cards, and even those were not 100% converted to quadro properly. A real quadro was still much faster and more stable.if i recall correctly there actually was one for the gtx 460, possibly the other 400 series cards.
No, a geforce will not be a good CAD card. Pro cards like the Quadro and FirePro cards can be up to 10x faster than a gaming card for pro apps. See my previous posts for proof. If you are running pro apps for real work then you should get a pro card.It really depends on exactly what you're using it for. In general, dollar for dollar you're money is better spent on a geforce card. However, it'll be very specific to the program you're using. I don't know where mastercam falls on the list. I do know that most of CAD systems don't need that much in the terms of graphics. A 150-200$ geforce card will be a HELL of a cad card for most people.
I have no idea why you think you can mod an 8800GT. It doesn't work. The G80 cards could sort of be modded, but they don't fully work as a Quadro.Thanks for the info pgaster. I'm going to try and softmod my old 8800GT for quad buffered stereo.
