Nvidia quadro option #48

Why/User Benefit/User Problem

Provide an Nvidia Quadro option with adequate cooling for sustained usage. You don't have a quadro in your lineup.

Description of the feature

The gpu will have a 3 pin DIN connector for Nvidia vision pro glasses and the display will run at 100HZ and 120HZ vertical refresh for 3D mode. An external display port would provide for an external monitor to be connected. This feature drives the product right at high level scientific users. My current hesitation in purchasing system76 for my work laptop is the lack of a quadro card and 64 to 128GB of RAM. I'd like to see a quadro 4000 level card in a 15-17" model.

I would like to add that having an Nvidia card really helps with CUDA programming. Please don't remove from being an option.
