I've never seen a review, and google seemed pretty fruitless.. Just wondering if anyone's ever seen one reviewed?

I swear I saw a review somewhere... Anyway, you may know this already, but if not, it's an awesome card for CAD, but gamers should look elsewhere (as usual, workstation graphics cards suck at the texture-heavy rendering needed for games, though cards like the Quadro "I'm-really-just-a-Geforce-on-steroids" tend to be good at both CAD and gaming).

That thing is enough to give a small child nightmares!

Aye, I was aware it'd probably lack somewaht for games, not that I could afford to buy one anyway, last I saw they cost about the same as a full system..

I was just curious as to what reviewers had to say.. I didn't bother looking around the smaller enthusiast sites, because of the cost, and well, it's not a gamers card 😛
