Evening all,
I'll be looking to build a new pc at some point next year and I'm still undecided about the graphics card. I don't play any games any more and I'm looking for a PC capable of running AutoCAD, D5 Render and Sketchup with the intention of continuing my development of 3D visualisations and architectural renderings.
My current spec is an i7 3770k at 3.5Ghz, 16Gb ram, Nvidia RTX 2060 GPU. It can run Autocad and sketchup to a degree with some smaller files in D5 Render.
I've had a look at a couple of youtube videos where folk have compared the Nvidia Quaddro 4000 v RTX 3090 / 4090 during various games and typically the consumer graphics card has increased FPS etc over the Pro Card. What I've not been able to find is how the Quaddro compares to a consumer card using a graphics heavy program such as Autocad or a rendering program like D5 / Lumion / Vray etc.
Whilst I don't expect I'll be forking out £6750 (at time of writing) for the Quaddro 8000 I did see that the Quaddro 5000 is on a par with the current RTX 4090 cards. I understand that the Quaddro cards deal with the complicated rendering calculations on the card rather than on the computer itself but I'd be interested to know if anyone has produced e.g 8k still renderings or more extensive animations on such a card and how it compares to a normal consumer card?
Any advice would be appreciated.
