Can a Nvidia TESLA boost Autodesk AutoCAD?

[chanwei21]

Hi guys,

I have some few questions about the nVidia TESLA C2050, C2070, k10 k20 etc.
Autodesk AUTOCAD this application is based performance on CPU.
will the nVidia TESLA boost the performance?

I'm using a quadro vcard. and how to install?
Just put in on 2nd pci-e slot? or any installation needed to know?

The Telsa cards are great for CUDA. If AutoCAD doesn't use CUDA for it calculations than it won't have any effect. I don't use AudoCAD so I don't know. Programs like Maya and 3DSMax use this program called Iray that uses CUDA and great befits per-visuliztions.

You would put the card in the next PICE slot, 8x or 16x. But once again it will do nothing unless the program calls on it.

The old Telsa Cards (C2050,70) are junk and 8yr old tech. They are using the FEMI chip (aka GTX 480). even the slowest (new) Quadro can out preform these 2-10x.
