    Hi,

    Does someone have ever tried Specviewperf benchmarks (proe) with recent
    geforce cards ?
    (8800 gts, 8600...)
    What were the results ?
    Is it ok for Proe ?

    Thanks,
    GB

    I know nothing about the 88 or 8600 cards. I have an nVidia GeForce 6800 GS
    card that works pretty well for Pro/e. It's kind of jumpy on shaded models
    but the other view modes work very smoothly. With 500M of memory, it doesn't
    slow down with multiple models open. I hear it could be "soft quadroed" to a
    Quadro FX 4600, but I haven't tried that. As with most GeForce cards, your
    86 & 8800 cards will probably suffer from partially activated OpenGL
    features which the Quadro FX GPUs have fully enabled. At the same time, I
    know of no head to head tests of the GeForce cards and their comparable
    Quado FX. Their is a very strong feeling in Pro/e circles that, for
    professional results, you need the Quadro cards just as you need a
    workstation, not just any old Windows PC (gaming "screamer" or not).
