If you're looking to build a powerful hash password cracking server then you're definitely on the wrong track with the Quadro cards.
First, those cards are Keppler, and Keppler sucks for password cracking. Second, GTX, Quadro, and Tesla all use the exact same GPU chips, they are just underclocked in Quadro and Tesla models. So the GTX variant of the card will always be faster than their Quadro and Tesla counterparts. The K4200 is basically an underclocked GTX 760 Ti, and the K5200 is basically an underclocked GTX 780. Both of which are terrible for password cracking.
The Titan X, on the other hand, is the fastest GPU available for password cracking. So this is kind of a no-brainer.
But if you did not know this basic information, then you may be in over your head trying to build a password cracking server. You should do more research and probably start small.
