Now if Adobe would support the 680 we would probably end up choosing
that

In what I can find, gpu benchmark and c4d benches show the
570 and 580 are pretty close.

for GTX 580 (3GB). I've recently got one and I'm very
satisfied with its CUDA performance. I don't have any
benchmarks against Quadro 4000, but it certainly feels
faster.

That makes things interesting since the price
difference between a Quadro 4000 and the 3GB 580GTX
is less than $250 depending on where you shop for
parts. I would love to hear from anyone who's tried
CS6 with the 580. I suppose if someone were to do a
render test in Premiere Pro 5.5 it might give an
indicator of what advantage you could get with
either card but without a base to compare it to this
is all speculative. If you go with raw Cuda cores
the 580GTX has twice as many plus more RAM than the
Quadro. That alone should make a major difference
but it's all about the drivers.

The specific advantage of more VRAM is you
can fit larger layers into memory instead
of having them swapped out for processing.
This is particularly an issue with
environment maps in AE CS6 (see the first
page of my review on PVC - http://tinyurl.com/AECS6onPVC).
So I'd go for the 3 GB flavor.
