The quickest thing to do in this case is for Eric to take his new video card out of his new computer and stick in his old video card, possibly, as I'm not even sure what that old video card is. If he told us, I don't see it at the moment.
But even that, without a benchmark of some sort, he's basically using "butt dyno" (for the car people lol) on his side and describing what he is seeing, which is subjective. UNLESS, there is a huge huge difference, but even then, we have to take his word that there is. And what is a huge difference to one person might not be to the next. Especially when you start waying in cost of products, etc etc.
Back to what I said before, many people keep implying that Creo doesn't even run on a GeForce card which is complelety false. And I thoroughly agree that it would be nice to know what the advantage of the Quadro is on a day to day working basis. I just think there is no straight answer because there is too much belief in one direction. And same thing, a minor performance improvement to one person might be a major performance improvement to another.
Which along those same lines, I see people buying $750+ video cards, but then hooking them to $99 monitors. But whatever, and almost the same with box computers, people buy a Dell with a Quadro? seems crazy to me, but it's common now a days.
