FS: Workstation Graphics Card - Quadro fx 3500

[TalonBoy]

I have a very little used PNY Quadro FX 3500 PCI Express high end video graphics card for sale. I used this for CAD design, but no longer need. Asking price $450 OBO. Retail is close to $1K. See link for details.

Price lowered. Exceptional for games, in case your wondering.
Want this gone.

What's it equivalent to compared to a consumer nVidia graphics card?

I'm not much up-to-speed on PC video cards anymore, Mac boy now, so I couldn't say. I'm sure if you researched the net, you'd get a good idea. I played Half Life Orange Box with it and was smooth as glass at 1200x1600 resolution, Details set to highest settings.

The FX 3500 uses the same core as a FX 5500, which has the same core as the Geforce 7900 GTX. The 3500 uses less pixel and vertex shaders (unified shaders didn't exist till Geforce 8), and less VRAM. Thus, you can more or less treat it like a workstation-class 7800 GTX.
