I was so upset when read at Xbitlab this page this morning :

http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/video/display/quadrofx-vs-firegl_13.html

nVIDIA was leader but suddenly fall far behind ATI in Maya 6.5 test. Why ? I'm gonna buy Quadro next month (saving money nearly enough). This review makes me confuse. :( . If there's no way to improve this situation, I have to buy FireGL instead of Quadro as I'm working on Maya. I really hate ATI.:cry:

look at the scores on that page for one, the high end and low end have the very same scores. this should send up a red flag,this would point to a driver problem. now second, look at all the other scores, nvidia wins almost all the other tests, hands down. now if your going to be paying all this money for a card, what card would you choose in the professional market... if my job counted on it i would probably go with nvidia.

Okies, if that's driver problem, will it be better if nVidia change their driver or later version of Maya ?

HHmm yes read the conclusions and there are many splinters to be found from sitting on the fence. Note that they completely missed the SPEC 9 test which has been available for reviewers at the time of this review and in this we see Nvidia blowing ATI away with the latest 91.28 driver set.

Just my 2 cents.......PM me if you need more information.
