The quadro is different to the geforce.

 

i presume this competition is for nvidia GEFORCE 4 series.

How exactly is it different?

 

some quadro cards have other ram/clocks than the geforce cards. e.g. gddr3 instead of ddr2.

but in the case of the geforce4 series there's no difference. ;)

but i think it's geforce 4 only, because otherwise it would say geforce4/quadro4 ;)

Beforce GF FX era and later Quadros was same, and used same reference PCB as GF. First ES geforce3 and geforce4's was markes as NV20GL/NV25GL (GL - mean pro version , quadro ones) with GF bios-es.

hmm.. a mx400/440 would probably score 1/3 of a GF4 Ti....maybe just 1/4. But I may remember wrong here, might just as well take a peek at the database :)

That's clear now :) One more stupid question

 

I have Quadro4 900XGL board (1:1 Ti4600 clone in every single detail except GPU). And I have some 4600 and 4400's with damaged parts. I can replace Quadro GPU to 4400/4600 one, and replace memory chips to faster ones. Card will be tuned 4600. Will scored results be valid for this challenge? I will share every and single part of work done, of course.

 

Already took quadro off, photos:

If the GPU = Ti4600 and Bios = Ti4600, then category = Ti4600.

 

So yes :)

 

Looking forward to see your results

Thanks a lot, I will continue now :D Good luck with fixin all that bugs on hwbot engine ;)

 

Turrican, just want gold badly :-D. I'm electronics engineer, so messing with chips and solder is my beloved hobby and work at same time.
