NVIDIA® Scalable Geometry Engine
Dramatically improves geometry performance across a broad range of CAD, DCC, and medical applications. This enables you to work interactively with models and scenes that are an order of magnitude more complex than ever before.
Fast 3D Texture Transfer
Allows fast transfer and manipulation of 3D textures, resulting in more interactive visualization of large volumetric datasets.
Unified Driver Architecture (UDA)
The NVIDIA UDA guarantees forward and backward compatibility with software drivers. Simplifies upgrading to a new solution because all Quadro products work with the same driver software.
Hardware 3D Window Clipping
Hardware accelerated clip regions enable faster data transfer between a window and the frame buffer to improve overall graphics performance.
NVIDIA® Parallel DataCache™
Supports a true cache hierarchy combined with on-chip shared memory. L1 and L2 caches drive exceptional throughput, accelerating features such as real-time ray tracing, physics, and texture filtering.
NVIDIA® GigaThread™ Engine
Provides up to 10x faster context switching compared to previous-generation architectures, concurrent kernel execution, and improved thread block scheduling.
Ultra-Quiet Design
Enables acoustics lower than 28db for an ultra-quiet desktop environment.
Display Features
Full-Scene Antialiasing (FSAA)
16X FSAA reduces visual aliasing artifacts or "jaggies, resulting in unparalled image quality and highly realistic scenes.
FXAA and TXAA
Unlike traditional anti-aliasing techniques, FXAA and TXAA deliver exceptional anti-aliasing image quality without the degredation in performance.
GPU Tessellation with Shader Model 5.0
Quadro Tessellation Engines automatically generate finely detailed geometry, for cinematic quality environments and scenes, without sacrificing performance.
