So I have built my PC(https://pcpartpicker.com/list/nxQKF8) but I need a graphics card. However I'm not really interested in shopping so hard to get a GeForce or similar GPU. Since I am studying engineering and using my machine for Autocad and inventor and solid works etc. Quadro cards don't seem like that bad of an idea. Will a rtx 4000 be over kill for the engineering work load I am doing now? Yes. Could I get away using a regular 2080(for example) for my engineering work? Also yes. I am just thinking it is way easier to find a Quadro card at the moment, and it could come to be very beneficial in the future. The stability of a quadro card also interests me, I hate restarting my programs all the time, I was even considering building with server grade hardware for this reason. My question is will a quadro be a potato when I am done with work and switch to steam to play Halo? Any help from you guy would be much appreciated!

If you want, check out RandomGaminginHD. He has videos on gaming on some Quadro cards, which should give you a better insight.

Also have you considered AMD's Pro series of GPUs?

 

I game with a WX3100 and am able to play pretty well, just not super modern titles. Games played: Minecraft, Paladins, Deceit, Fortnite and some others).
