Can we use the same graphics card for different kinds of applications?

Professional cards simply perform much faster because unlike consumer boards their FP64 is not artificially limited but only Tesla has its FP64 fully unlocked. If your laptop does not have a gaming-grade GPU, then none of this applies.
