Why does this Quadro graphics card cost 7,000 euro?

So in the Amazon I found this graphics card: https://www.amazon.de/...06X9X9PSS/

Now the question is, why this Quadro is much more expensive than the Nvidia Geforce? And can you play better games with this graphics card, if it would be on my computer? Could I gamble in Minecraft with over a few 10000 FPS Shader Mod? Because why not buy a rather expensive Quadro instead of Nvidia Geforce?

Not everything that is expensive is really good value for money. If you play normal games that do not need supercomputers, then you do not need that graphics card, why? Even though 99% of the games will be played with Geforce.

Just as it was with Iphone and Iphone S because of this S, people were willing to pay double that. You want to pay 10 times, madness!

A lot of memory, many cores and you buy not only the card but also the support. If you count on costs per time and so a card done in 30 minutes, the calculations for which other cards need 12 hours, then it may be worthwhile.

Even with simple things, such as programming, sometimes you buy newer hardware, because you might so the waiting time per compile process improved by a few minutes and then pay off in the amount.

These are graphics cards for professional use, ie 3D rendering, etc., with CUDA acceleration. You sometimes need exorbitant graphics memory or high FP64 performance. The units for this are then mostly disabled in the gamer versions.

There's not a big difference between the cards otherwise. In many cases, even a GeForce in professional use is hardly slower than a Quadro. Always depends on the software. If you need double precision FP, of course, the GeForce will crash. And of course you get support for the Quadro, which is important in a professional environment.

Playing on the Quadro the other way could be pretty difficult to impossible if that does not work with the GeForce driver.
