[Paraview] Advice on graphics cards

[Paul McIntosh]

Hi Paul,
 
I think you are stuck with eitther a Tesla or Quadro on a cluster. This is
due to the ability to configure those cards to work without a display (see
the release notes for the latest drivers though).
 
I'd be interested to hear otherwise as we have a few GTX280 nodes that are
currently just used for CUDA. Maybe there is a way to "spoof" a monitor
another way?
 
Cheers,
 
Paul

Hi, 

Can anyone recommend a graphics cards to use for a linux cluster running
ParaView?  And, does anyone know how a GeForce card compares to a Quadro of
a similar spec?

Thanks in advance,
Paul
