Some professionals, you mean. For certain types of pro task, cards like this are not remotely suitable,
because in many cases having ECC RAM is absolutely essential, eg. accelerating financial transactions.

I agree with you about the pricing, but it's not the Quadros that pro users want to get, even though they
are indeed costly, rather it's the Tesla cards that are in demand but out of reach for many. Titan is an
entry Tesla, but it has too many features missing to be suitable for every pro task. Depends on what one
is doing. It can be ok for development work, but often not viable in a production environment.

Probably, but I can't imagine why you'd want to. SLI implies a gaming scenario, in which case 4-way 6GB 780
makes more sense, or quad-290X, or quad-780Ti if 3GB per GPU is ok.

The card is a monster and the price is crazy. For a gamer, it is pointless unless you want the ultimate Mini-ITX gaming rig. For people that use these for work, and space is limited, they make perfect sense. If you only have room for a single pc, in a particular area, and need the GPU muscle, these are a good idea.

Im sure if you had 2 9800 gt's, one can offload physics, and the other could process the grfx pipeline, given you have reasonable cpu.

Pandamonium bamboo sticks.

This pc is made up of many refurb, sales, and used deals and was something that happened over time. I didn't build it all at once. My PSU is 5+ years old from previous build, I have had the 3570k for 2yrs almost. I bought the case refurb a year ago, the drives are left overs from previous build as well. I bought the GPU from a friend cheap too. His went bad and he had to RMA it, so I bought the returned RMA card, since he didn't need it after buying an R9 290x. :lol: I paid $230 for a then $350 card. :D I am a cheapskate.
