Just wanted to post a question, since I don't know much about current Nvidia cards. I have a HP xw9300 3D Work Station with the following hardware:
Dual (not dual core) AMD Operton 2.4GHz (italy core)
8 Gigs of RAM
360 SCSI High Performance HD
Nvidia Quadro FX4500
This system is running Linux but I thought it would be fun to put windows on it and run some benchmarks since as stated above this is a 9000.00 computer. I mean an Nvidia Quadro FX4500 is around 1800.00 just for the card?
Boy was I surprised. It only beat my system at home by 3000 points or so (and my system at home is just okay). The score for 3DMark03 was "15869".
Is something wrong or is this card not good for stuff like games? I realize that it is a special card but don't know much about it.
THANKS!
I wish I had this system at home, it even supports SLI, imagine if this had 2 7800's!
