Question!

[wera]

What is the big difference in regular enthusiast cards, and workstation cards?
Like FireGL and Quadtro, and enthusiast card like the 98xx and 38xx series.
Im not asking "is this for gaming" Im asking what makes them good at that what they were designed for? Sorry this probably isn't worded well but im quite tired and i type rather sloppy when im tired .

This should give you some idea of the differences between these 2 cards.

Those workstation cards are unbelievably expensive!. I know I had to pick one up and it was $1400 for a Quadro FX3000 video card. This was for an Engineer who was using it for Solidworks.
