Baller!
Why do you need such a powerful computer for CAD? my school has CAD on computers much much less powerful than this..

Personally I prefer the Fire GL series.
That being said, the pro level card is worth it for rendering, especially in 3D CAD.
My father is a civil engineer, all of their draftsmen have a Quadro or Fire GL based system.
I'd go for it.

Since NX is so heavily CPU dependent we are going to test this mid-end gaming card vs an older Quadro FX 3500 and see if there is any performance difference. If the FX 3500 preforms better it will be put in this machine and the gaming card will take the FX's current location. Since the gaming card arguably does nothing to increase performance in NX the Quadro should be the clear winner (even if it is dated). If there is no-minimal performance increase we will know for future endeavors that a Quadro is not a necessity inside our NX workstations.
