Both graphics cards work fine. Quadro 4000 is newer and is official Mac version
GTX285 is good - and benefits from a 2nd DVI port and is a bit cheaper. However, you can only get PC re-flashed versions of the GTX285 now as the Mac edition is no longer sold and almost impossible to find.
Im testing a GTX480 (re-flashed) and might be a GTX570 available in a few months...
However - testing depends on your hardware OS and SSD and movies etc.
(both are very similar performance though...)

I´m using 8core pro 5.1 with radeon 5770 and SSD for content. I used Lion with Cat 364 before, but it was litle bit strange so I downgrade for 10.6.8 with Cat 329.
480 or 570 will be work under Snow Leopard?
ATI 5770 has terrible performance... drivers are broken in 10.6.8
On a MacPro stick with 10.6.8 unless you don't have a choice.
OS 10.7.x does work with M364
M364 should be fine on any version of OS.
GTX480 works on 10.6.8 and 10.7.x
GTX570 may only work on 10.7.x - but this is still TBC
Both GTX480 & GTX570 are PC re-flashed cards - so use at your own risk & do test.
