Need advice on video card

I am planning a new system. It will be used for several different
tasks. Specifically, I will be using Photoshop and Premiere Pro. I
also will be using Dragon Naturally Speaking (voice recognition) all of
the time.

I want the best video card I can get but I am not sure...

The two that I have heard the most about at the high end (sticking with
nVidia) would be the geForce 7900 and the Quadro 4500. The Quadro is
much more expensive. I understand that is supports dual link x2 but
other than that, what is the better card and why?
....

The GeForce 7900 is for gaming, and the Quadro is for professional
work. The list of Quadro Partner Certified Drivers

http://www.nvidia.com/page/partner_certified_drivers.html

may help you to gain insight into the application field for a Quadro 4500.

So does the 7900...
