Computer specs
GeForce box:
i7-3970x, Geforce GTX690, 32GB RAM
Quadro laptop:
i7-820QM, Quadro FX880M, 8GB RAM
As can be seen in the graph, even a 3-year old mobile Quadro card can easily beat a high-end desktop Geforce card in pretty much every benchmark, except for CEI Ensight which I believe does not rely heavily on double-precision floating point computations.
It was quite surprising contemplating on the fact that Geforce box had all the superior parts and still couldn’t even compete with old Quadro.
