Professional now means what bigger performance in high floats like FP64 or what?

For GPUs like this, it means multi-monitor office PCs. For high-end professional GPUs, yeah, FP64 is really what you're getting.

In this logic almost all cards from last 5 years are professional.. even that new Geforce 710 with 4 HDMI ports.

Damn bro this card named like a terminator but looks like it was made 10 years ago

Nvidia also guarantees a continuous supply of these chips which is important to OEMs that certify the design for a specific system and don't want to recertify new/different parts for replacements.

That actually has not been true for a couple generations now, the P6000, RTX 6000, and A6000 (for example) all have the same crippled FP64 as the low end GTX/RTX cards. Differences are mainly more memory and certified drivers. Only the highest end Gx100 chips get full speed FP64 and FP16, and while these are available in the “highest end” professional cards like the Quadro GP100 and GV100, they are reserved mainly for the datacenter.
