It's a professional workstation card, it's not meant for gaming or to be bought by Joe 6-pack.

Workstation cards have a different driver system. They are built for pixel precision and capacity, not cranking out pixels as fast as possible. These workstation cards run on a different 3D mode (full open GL too), usually NOT DirectX. CADD, professional video editing, and creating 3D models (Pixar stuff, CG, etc.) are some of the purposes of this card. Running it with games would result in a very choked frame rate.......as DirectX is not usually used or compatible.
