Would this be a good workstation graphics card for someone using Photoshop CS3,
CS3 Flash, Quark Xpress.... No gaming requirments and no 3D game designing
requirment... Just photo editing and some graphics design type
requirments....?????

Key Features and Benefits
NVIDIA Unified Architecture
Industry’s first unified architecture designed to dynamically allocate compute,
geometry, shading and pixel processing power to deliver optimized GPU
performance.
Next-Generation Vertex and Pixel Programmability Shader Model 4.0
Reference standard for shader model 4.0 enabling a higher level of performance
and ultra-realistic effects for next generation OpenGL and DirectX 10
industry-leading professional applications.
Essential for Microsoft Windows Vista
Offering an enriched 3D user interface, increased application performance, and
the highest image quality, NVIDIA Quadro graphics boards and NVIDIA OpenGL ICD
drivers are optimized for 32- and 64-bit architectures to enable the Windows®
Vista™ experience.
Rotated-Grid Full-Scene Antialiasing (RG FSAA)
The rotated grid FSAA sampling algorithm introduces far greater sophistication
in the sampling pattern, significantly increasing color accuracy and visual
quality for edges and lines, reducing “jaggies” while maintaining performance.
nView® Multi-Display Technology (available spring, 2008)
The NVIDIA nView hardware and software technology combination delivers maximum
flexibility for multi-display options, and provides unprecedented end-user
control of the desktop experience. NVIDIA GPUs are designed to support
multi-displays.
NVIDIA® PureVideo™ Technology
NVIDIA PureVideo technology is the combination of high-definition video
processors and software that delivers unprecedented picture clarity, smooth
video, accurate color, and precise image scaling for SD and HD video content.
Features include, high-quality scaling, spatial temporal de-interlacing, inverse
telecine, and high quality HD video playback from Blu-Ray or HD-DVD.
Unified Driver Architecture
The NVIDIA UDA guarantees forward and backward compatibility with software
drivers. Simplifies upgrading to a new NVIDIA product because all NVIDIA
products work with the same driver software.
