high end graphics cards

Hey everyone ... I was browsing the boxxtech.com website, and noticed they now offer Nvidia Quadro FX4600G cards! before Christmas, it was just the FX4600 card ...

So my question is, what does the G mean on their Quadro FX cards? The specs on paper are pretty much the same from the sources I can find, so I'm kinda confused on that

Ah, the G is the Genlock, its like a combo, you buy a 4600 and get a Genlock with it

Genlock
Synchronizes graphics output to an external source, typically for film and broadcast video applications.

No probs, glad to help.

80GTS isnt a highend CAD/CAM Graphics card, but its capable of doing really well
