I dont get it?

So i see that a Quadro 5000 Graphics Card has a mere 2.5gb ram but is worth a whopping £2900

Yet the Nvdia titan which has more memory and is crowned the best GPU worth £800 but the Quadro 5000 Graphics Card cost so much more!

Y is that, ive had a look at the specs and they seem same as the above

So why is this Quadro 5000 Graphics Card worth so much cash?

Would I get better graphics if I bought a Quadro 5000 Graphics Card than a titan?

its a workstation grade card. they have completely different drivers and are optimised for productivity, precision and colour reproduction rather than games and raw speed.

ECC memory is one of the main reasons, plus it's for a totally different market - Quardo is aimed at CAD/3D workstations and come with a variety of tools to enable that and Titan is a gamers card.

For example the Quadro has things like 128x fsaa and 30bit colour processing, things not needed for gaming.

If you were doing professional graphics work, yes. If just gaming, then no.
