Default Best card to mod to Quadro at a decent price range? - 09-13-2005, 15:03 | posts: 2 | Location: Athens, GR

Dear All,

Sorry if it has been covered a million times, but I did my homework, searched extensively and still cannot decide.

Ideally, I'd like a card at about the price of an Asus 6600GT (around 200 Euros where I live) but I could go a little higher if needed.

The card will be bought with the expressed intention of modding it to some version of Quadro, since that's what Avid would prefer to see in my system, instead of any other card

From your collective wisdom, what would be the most promising card to go for? Any chances with a PCI-e as of yet?
What about an actual PCI-e 6600GT? An AGP? Should I opt for a different model? Willing to even try hardmodding, if there's no other way... Any suggestions?

Thanking all in advance,
-s.

6800NU AGP or 6800GT AGP is your best bet if you want Quadro

Eh, you didn't even have to search - all the info you require has been given in the recent Quadro threads... how about some reading before posting the same questions asked a day before?
