So in plain speak:
I will keep the accuracy of the quadro.
if attached to a monitor.
And the cheaper gfx cards become horsepower while the quadro controls the quality?

Headless or not makes no difference for CUDA computation. It does matter for OpenGL usage, which requires a connected monitor.

What if you run the quadro 4000 headless? And then use the ATI 5770 to
drive 2 monitors? Same deal?

After Effects will use all available cores on all cards. The RAM, per
card, will be equal to the smallest of the two cards (so if one has
1GB, and one has 2GB, both cards will use 1GB).

Premiere behaves differently but someone else will have to chime in
with the details.

How do the adobe apps choose what to use?
I have a quadro 4000 attached to monitor 1
and also a gtx 570 attached to monitor 2
How does the adobe app choose which is the card to use?
I looked but it is not clear.
