Quadro Card for Displays on 3D/Editing PC? (lemmy.ml)

Anybody familiar with quadro cards?

I'm currently running an old Titan X for monitor display only and an RTX 3090 for computing/rendering.

If I run any monitors off of my 3090, I eventually get a BSOD when running renders or AI models. I think it's a driver issue due to being forced to use the driver for the old Titan card.

So I'm looking to get a quadro card for my 5 displays, a mixture of display port, dvi, and hdmi.

Anybody got any affordable recommendations? It will need to have at least enough processing power to run my viewports in 3dsmax and blender.

It took some trickery (that I don’t remember) but I was able to get my 3080 laptop to support the ancient unsupported Nvidia GPU with both running their correct drivers. Have you tried fiddling around with updating and rolling back drivers in device manager?

And unless you need the certified drivers (which it sounds like you might not even be able to use) or the extra floating point performance then quadros are a waste of money.

Also from what I can tell modern GeForce and quadros can only drive 4 displays at a time. My ATI 5870 from 2010 can do 6 displays, but for whatever reason they decided that was too many and went back.

Yeah I think I may end up just sticking with my Titan card. It’s got 5 outputs and different output types. 10bit output would be great but apparently I wouldn’t be able to have that while also using the 3090
