I'm planning to build a new workstation pc and what I'm really stuck on is which graphics card to get. I'm definitely steering away from a gaming card, meaning no Geforce. Right now, I'm looking at a 3d Labs Wildcat VP 880 Pro because it's relatively cheap for a 256MB CG card compared to a $1000+ Nvidia quadros. I'm wondering if there are people here who are experienced and know their hardware and if they could suggest a money saving card that would be good for a workstation (perhaps around $300-400 CDN). I'm not professional or anything but I want to start early and pursue this as a career.
Thanks
