Please explain “speed” versus “power”: isn’t a faster card a more powerful one? and the other way around?
What makes one better in gaming and the other better at modeling?
I have run several GTX cards in the past years. My impression was that modeling and CAD (Autocad, Draftsight, Blender modeling) were so easy on all, as to have almost no difference between them. Rendering (Blender Cycles) was a different story, here time was counted in hours and minutes - not screen lag, the cards behaved proportionally to their benchmarks from sites like PassMark GPU tests and inline with their Nvidia naming codes with generations and cuda power.
