GPU comparison

[brokebeardedguy]

Is there any kind of list that compares all the Nvidia gpus? I'm looking for a list because sometimes software will say requires a GTX 560 or higher which isn't a powerful card but there's no reason why a Quadro p4000 wouldn't be able to handle that same workload at least in my opinion. Is there anything that compares like minimum system requirements?

Like this?  Looks like the 560 is the better card in most cases.

So in a cad workstation I should ditch my quadro for a 560?

I love how I have a question and its just completely blown off

it happens. but workstation cards are meant for doing 3d rendering. but newer cards going to be better than an older workstation one. to answer your question i would recommend using userbenchmark to build your current pc and then compare you hardware with the 560. look at the workstation part more so than the gaming or desktop rating though. it's not a 100% accurate but it gives you a really good ballpark figure. i have a friend that uses a 1060 for moderate 3d rendering software. i even used my 760 before i got a r9 390x. play around with the userbenchmark build and compare feature though. here's the link:   http://www.userbenchmark.com/PCBuilder

userbenchmark is pretty shit for non-gaming stuff

it considers the p6000 worse than the 1080 ti.

they have different jobs as seen in linus's do you really need a quadro.

never knew that about the workstation side of it. i don't do too much myself. i know i just need to use the computers at my university to get my rendering done fast. i don't know there hardware though, besides using a 6th gen i7

I apricate the input... I think ill just stick with windows 7 and maybe try to grab a used system to test 10
