Quadro FX video card plus + Maya + Photoshop.

We're upgrading our video cards at work and I'm wondering if anyone has used these cards with maya 2008 and photoshop cs4 and has an opinion on them. We are currently using the quadrofx 1700 and it does an okay job with maya, but doesn't like photoshop at all. None of our artists can successfully run cs4 in opengl mode even though the card is listed as supported on the adobe website.

Quadro FX 1800?

Quadro FX 3800?

Also we will be running these in vista64 if that makes any difference.

What's the CS4 problem? Lagging or won't let activate itself?

Crashes immediately after booting and auto disables the gl feature. Turning it back on crashes it again and disables it.

Which means there is a driver problem with the card. Check with NVidia for driver updates.

I'm running a Quadro FX 3500 here at work and I have photoshop and maya open all day and everything runs quite well. We're using this driver (http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_162.65.html) and things run smooth. As a matter of fact a lot of times I'm running maya, max, and ps and it still runs well.
