+---- Thread: Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS or Quadro 600? (/showthread.php?tid=134082)
Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS or Quadro 600? - Neonzumi - 12-20-2015
Yes I know its a dumb question because both are outdated anyway.
GameDebate says the GTS would perform better for games but I want some other opinions scince I'm not the most knowlegable person about thigs like these... :p

Eh, wouldn't it be better to buy a relatively new GPU? Both of these are ancient, and probably more expensive than cards several generations newer anyways.

I got my reasons. $:

Quaddro cards have a huge price premium as they are used for non-gaming professional applications.
What is your current amount of money you want to spend on it?
Better yet, tell us your current rig in general, because I have a feeling you might be buying a card for a Pentium III or something.

Would be nice if I had cash for a "new" one. Buying these second hand to patch up cause I have nothing to play on atm.
CPU is Intel Core 2 Duo E6600
Got 4Gigs Dual-Channel DDR2

I'm still using 8800 gts G92 and it works nice on lower resolutions. But don't expect to play newer games, mostly cause dx10, and be aware of power requirement of 140W and around 20a on 12V. For games its better than quadro but its lame in multimedia. Hope I helped a bit.
RE: Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS or Quadro 600? - Neonzumi - 12-20-2015
Wonder if any of the two can run Skyrim. Yeah thanks its always good to hear fedback from a current user. I mostly need to run Disco, League of Legends, GaR and MC so if I cant run newer games not much of a problem.

Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS
however..an iGPU is 3 or 4 times better in benchmarks
so..if you already have a working card dont buy another,instead upgrade your pc,keep the ram buy another motherboard + atleast an i3 processor and the rest will have to figure out by yourself since you didnt gave more details
RE: Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS or Quadro 600? - Exploration - 12-20-2015
To be honest if you bought an i3 the integrated graphics would be superior. Even a Pentium G2030 had some pretty decent Intel integrated for basic stuff. I ran Disco at 1080P for a year on that thing.
RE: Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS or Quadro 600? - Neonzumi - 12-20-2015
I got the 8800 GTS on the end. Games run well on it actually lol.
Thanks for all the help guys.
