Graphics Card Recommendations ...

Any recommendations for graphics cards for a 2008 Mac Pro running Maya 2013, ZBrush, AE CS6, Photoshop CS6, stuff like that.
And please ... I know the Mac options are limited so no "Switch to PC" preaching. I'm REALLY comfortable with my Mac workflow.
I'm considering the Nvidia Quadro 4000. I like the CUDA capabilities among other things.

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

If you are techy I believe you can make a MAC swallow a GeForce 580, I have one and I can tell you that it beats most of the quadro's except for maybe a Quadro 6000, but that one costs about a miljon bucks user added image
