title: what is the difference between a NVIDIA Quadro 6000 and Tesla C2075 graphic cards?
body: <p>I am looking into GPU computing and I can't figure out what the <strong>technical / performance differences</strong> are between a NVIDIA Quadro 6000 and a NVIDIA Tesla C2075 graphics card. They both have 6GB of RAM and the same number of computing cores. 
  So what's the difference? I want to do CUDA computations with the card.</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT:</strong>
  Please, if Nvidia says that card X is good for climate calculations, card y is great for seismic processing, than this is nothing but PR. There is no graphic card made for climate calculations. A card is either good for single or double precision computing, or for FFTs etc. And that's exactly my questions here: what are the technical differences and for what kind of computations should I expect to get faster results on one card vs the other.</p>
