Glad this came up; at
work we just ordered a Mac Pro workstation for 4K color grading
and it will be running the ATI 5770 card in the #2 slot and
the #1 PCI-E slot with a GPX Xpander box and 2x Nvidia GTX 580 1.5
gig cards, ostensibly as a DaVinci Restore workstation, but wanting
to do multiple duty with AE and Premier Pro (CS 5.5 Prod Premium)
and FCP.
We planned on running an Apple 27 inch monitor for GUI on the 5770
and running a NEC PA301W-BK-SV 30 inch monitor off of one of the
580s as the grading monitor.
After reading all the replies, it doesn't sound like we'll have
problems, but always open to suggestions/tweaks.
Thanks.

- AE and PP will use the 4000 for CUDA.
the other config with dual nVida GPU's you should run both
monitors on one card. I'd probably use the 4000 for displays and
the 570 for pure CUDA in AE, but the other way around for PP as
the 4000 has ( should have ) faster output to the PCIe bus.

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.
