A friend's workplace is looking to upgrade the GPU in one of the PCs to improve performance for Revit. It currently uses an old Quadro which is struggling, while another PC of the same model but upgraded to the Quadro K2200 does a much better job. So they asked my friend if there's anything better than the K2200 for under £500. No preference between Nvidia and AMD as long as it helps with Revit. I suggested looking at the M2000 but I have no idea if there's anything better.

I wasn't sure about consumer cards, since I knew Nvidia did optimise the Quadro cards driver wise for these sort of workloads. Thinking about it he has a 970 in his home PC, so I guess I can ask him to compare it to the K2200.
They got the K2200 about half a year ago for around £380, looking now they see it has raised in price to £450. They have checked the price of the M2000 and it's about £450 as well.
I did consider AMD's FirePro series but I was unsure if Revit could take advantage of it, their site is a bit pants
. They found the W5100 for £300 but W7100 for nearly £700.
I'll see how he feels about his 970 for now, I'll suggest him the M2000 and W5100 as well and see what his workplace will decide on.
Thanks for the help all
