Hi everyone,
In planning to build a pc for gaming and CAD software, mainly Solidworks.
My plan is to use a GTX card for the gaming and a Quadro (P2000) for the CAD.
The reason for this is that SolidWorks does not utilize a GTX gaming card, and switches to the CPU for rendering and simulation computing.
When using a Quadro the computing etc. is done on the GPU, which results in quicker calculations.
However, for gaming, a GTX is nice to have as Quadros usually are older version GTX chips and not optimized for high fps output.
Could anyone tell me if the following will work?
- Using a GTX 1070/1080 for gaming, connected to monitor
- Using a Quadro P2000 (or any quadro) for computing, not connected to monitor
Cheers!
