So a while ago I posted an AE graphic card benchmark at creative cow that has gotten a lot of responses, so I threw together a quick, readable spreadsheet of the results. I was mainly curious about compute performance of the new titan card vs. last gen 5xx cards and the kepler 6xx series. I wanted to see if the titan was worth the extra $1,000, because it is in fact a consumer version of the nvidia k20 tesla which costs over $3k. The results were very interesting. The original thread is here

And I have posted the spreadsheets (and benchmark file) on my server at

What I would love to add are any results with the newer quadros (5000 / 6000) or any tesla card.

Furthermore I'd be interested to hear any thoughts from 3D users about their experiences using an AMD 7950 vs nvidia consumer card for viewport 3D (using zbrush / maya / or C4D especially)

The amount of C4D work I've been doing has only increased in the last year and I can imagine when CS7 comes out that's only going to increase. viewport accuracy is going to be of a larger concern and nvidia is using a poor strategy to differentiate the quadros by gimping compute performance in the 6xx consumer cards.

Would also love to hear any thoughts on these results, I'll refrain from saying what I think until people get a chance to check it out.
