a lot of others things are intentionally *removed* from geforce vs quadro drivers.
(appart from ECC support, both cards are 100% identical hardware )

– 10bits support : Nvidia is changing is mind there, geforce does have “partial” 10bit display (for example in full screen HDR games). but – for now – only quadro can display a windowed 10bit openGL frame
– famous error 42 when doing GPU passthrough in a virtual machine. only GRID and quadro card can be virtualized… so nice to have to pay 5x the price to enable virtualization!!
– TCC mode (telsa compute cluster) : a specific mode that allow a card to NOT use the windows WDDM driver (that consume a bunch of VRAM) + no need to hook a display to use the card + TCC mode is needed by high end CUDA software. all Titan card can be switched between WDDM and TCC mode… so why need to buy a 5x more expensive Tesla card, that is slower 🙂
– many OpenGL optimization are simply removed from the geforce driver

and *of course* you can not :
– install a geforce card with a quadro driver, and vice versa
– mix a geforce with a quadro card in the same system and use both drivers
– this is a intentional mess…

– edit : not sure yet what i’ve changed in the newest titanXP drivers, but competition from AMD vega FE is kicking in the ass of this bullshit politic of Nvidia :). currently only affecting openGL optimization

There are a lot of confusions and misunderstandings about Quadro graphic cards which this test was a light on those.

One thing grabbed my attention in SPECviewperf test. I noticed that all applications that using polygons (3ds Max, Maya and Showcase) are having almost the same results between P5000 and GTX 1080. However, in the applications that using NURBS surfaces by default and having a “tessellation” process in the background (CATIA, SolidWorks, NX, Creo), P5000 performs a lot better than GTX.

I’m using Autodesk Alias and SolidWorks and I experienced this lack of performance on GeForce cards before. Also, SolidWorks has a feature called Realview which it doesn’t work on GeForce graphic cards.

Thank you for this test. You did an awesome job.

And there’s another reason they block you from doing that. Quadro are used for 10-bit content editing. Geforce is locked out and can only output 8-bit.

You messed up with installing the drivers or settings because my Quadro P600 gets 107FPS in cinebench.

No. You think they’re stupid to let you do that? And also there are hardware and firmware differences.

glLightModeli(GL_LIGHT_MODEL_TWO_SIDE, GL_TRUE);
in test “GeeXLab: two sided lighting test”
is software-limited on not quadro cards. (10-40 times performance loss)
To get around this we can use shaders.

Whats the extra mumbo-jumbo there?
