My university had lab machines set-up for the gfx guys...I'd be surprised if most schools don't have at least a few machines for the intensive stuff.

just buy a high end consumer geforce card or 2 and flash the quadro firmware on it. Unless things have changed the last few years they are usually identical cards with different firmware that allows them to run different drivers that are specialized for GPGPU and rendering, including drivers designed for specific programs.

i wouldnt do that in a business, but for a personal workstation? fuck yea i would. I know for sure a few years back the $999 Quadro or whatever nvidia card was the exact same PCB, chipset, and memory config as a $200 GeForce. the only difference was the firmware and label on the box. fuck that noise.
