It seems like the driver has version 8.something, whilst the packaging
for the consumer cards (not the CAD ones) use 9.something and
10.something. Trying to map between the two is anything but simple...

We bought a V3750 and it gave us a lot more performance than the
consumer card. Still has a bit to go to beat the Nvidia stuff though.
