If the GPU is being used as a compute device, then frankly the output quality of the OpenGL drivers is irrelevant and so having a Quadro just doesn't seem important any more.
You want enough VRAM to make sure all the textures etc being rendered fit on the video card else the scene won't render.
You want something that is a monster at compute.
Don't think a Quadro 2000 will cut it tbh.
Edit to add: The Quadro 2000 is an underclocked GT450, a consumer card that retails new for £80. I would want 2GB of ram, and a lot more shaders.
