Nvidia has unveiled what it claims to be the most powerful professional graphics card in graphics history, the Nvidia Quadro FX 5800. The Quadro FX 5800 graphics card offers up to 240 Cuda programmable parallel cores and the industries first 4GB of graphics memory. The card also features interactive 4D modeling with time lapse capabilities, massive memory bandwidth of up to 102GB per second, and fill rates that exceed 52 billion texels per second and geometry performance of 300 million triangles per second.
The card also supports next-generation OpenGL and Microsoft DirectX 10 applications, as well as advanced multi-system and multi-device visualization environments using Quadro G-Sync II.
The real question is whether is whether this will be required to enable eye candy features on Windows 7.

You are underestimating the card, if cheap notebook VGA cards can handle Win 7 why cant a behemoth like this cant ? And Nvidia already created cards that can run Crysis in all its glory at excess of 100 fps.
I like that analogy. It's true, and funny
As Airlink already said, these cards are not for gaming at all. although the ATI workstation cards seem to perform well for games (tried the ATI FireGL V7350).
