than the Titan and really only effective in a pair with a Tesla card for compute performance. We are using K5200s mostly for support in our 840 HP towers, the price point and the possible upgrade path to a K5200 and Tesla combo. All of these cards should
be supported in the new dll I referenced earlier.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

et al. If nVidia had they’re way they would have us buy a Tesla and a Quadro-a pretty penny indeed (<a href="http://www.nvidia.com/object/multi-gpu-technology.html">http://www.nvidia.com/object/multi-gpu-technology.html</a>). In fact most of the Quadros
are crippled to push users to purchase the pair. If I were going build another computer for OpenSPIM I would go with the Titan. It is more than capable and arguably better than most of the Quadros by price and uses the same processor as the K6000. There
are differences in memory architectures between the Titan and some (one) of the Quadro lines but this probably isn’t worth the extra cost either.
