I have a friend who used to work with computers and I asked him to get me a good deal on a gaming card, he went and got me a NVIDIA Quadro 600. At the time I did not know that this card is not a gaming card and I bought it. He recently moved and now I want to start gaming, but the games I play are not compatible with the Quadro. Is there any website that trades video cards? If I was to trade this card what would be a card of equivalent price for gaming? Any suggestions would be appreciated. I am going to copy some of the stats for the card from dxdiag and paste them below in case they are needed:

I don't think there are any sites like what you want, the best you could do is sell that one and use the funds to suppliment the cost of a new card. I'm using a Radeon HD 6970 right now and it runs most games on high-ultra settings and its fairly cheap as far as graphics cards go (around $150 I think)
Your card is kind of old/lower end, but it looks like you can get around 50-60 for it on ebay

Sorry this probably isn't what you wanted to hear, but even if you found someplace that let you trade it, you wouldn't get a very good gaming card for it.
