Difficult to say without testing on the actual platform. The Xeon has a better internal architecture than a standard i7 but that architecture is optimised more towards server work although Xeons are also often used in high end CAD stations.

I’d probably try and get a system based round the i7-4790K processor as with all cores running, it runs at 4.2GHz – the Xeon runs at 3.6GHz. The actual processor cost is similar.

That said, there probably won’t be a lot of difference.

The Quadro has an awesome spec though!
