    want to replace my workstation card

    currently have a Wildcat VP870, but lately has been giving me some worrying signs on my 2nd display - flickering artifacts etc.

    so looking to replace it - my sys is AGP so need an AGP card - was looking at a Quadro FX4000, but i've been out of touch with workstation graphics for a couple of years now as i've been doing so much photography and seem to have been sucked in to that..

    any1 offer some help?

    i should have said - it has to be a professional OGL graphics card as i do 3D modeling... (but i would have thought the Wildcat would have given that away..)

    I suggest you take a look at this

    I believe a similar mod is available to flash a nVidia 6800-series to the equivalent Quadro FX.
