I wouldnt dream of buying a FX1300 over a game card. but the FX1400 is still holding it own.

NV40 6800 softmodded to quadro is damn near the same thing as a fx1400.... something to consider if your looking at $$$.

If UFB is a must, FX1400, but if you dont need UFB, I would rather get a 7800 series card myself.

Depends on how complex the scenes/models you are working on are. Lots of big textures or heavy antialiasing will require higher memory bandwidth.

You can softmod a much cheaper Geforce into a Quadro, so I recommend that.
