Advanced Color Compression, Early Z-Cull Improved pipeline colour compression and early z-culling to increase effective bandwidth and improve rendering
efficiency and performance. Compatible with Industry Standard Architectures Compatible with x86 32 and 64-bit microprocessor architectures and operating systems from Intel/AMD and Microsoft/Linux. Cg High-Level Graphics Shader Language Cg—“C” for graphics—is a high-level, open-standard programming language that takes advantage of the power of programmable GPUs. NVIDIA® Quadro® FX programmable graphics pipelines leverage high-level shading languages to enable the creation and integration of real-time photorealistic effects into 3D models, scenes, and designs. This represents a key enabler for the creation of real-time, photo-realistic visuals within CAD, DCC, and scientific applications. Essential for Windows Vista Offering an enriched 3D user interface,
increased application performance, and the highest image quality, Quadro graphics boards and NVIDIA OpenGL ICD drivers are optimized for 32- and 64-bit architectures to enable the Microsoft® Windows Vista® experience. Full-Scene Antialiasing (FSAA) Up to 16x FSAA dramatically reduces visual aliasing artifacts or “jaggies, ” resulting in highly realistic scenes Hardware 3D Window Clipping Hardware accelerated clip regions (data transfer mechanism between a window and the frame buffer) which improve overall graphics performance by increasing transfer speed between colour buffer and frame buffer. HDMI Support Enables transport of video and audio to HDTV’s and other HDMI capable devices (via HDMI adaptor). Highest Workstation Application Performance Next-generation
architecture enables over 2x improvement in geometry and fill rates with the industry’s highest performance for professional CAD, DCC, and scientific applications. High-Performance Display Outputs 400MHz RAMDACs and up to two DisplayPort digital connectors drive the highest resolution digital displays available on the market. 8K Texture and Render Processing The ability to texture from and render to 8K x 8K surfaces. Beneficial for applications that demand the highest resolution and quality image processing. Next-Generation Vertex and Pixel Programmability Shader Model 4.0 Reference standard for shader model 4.0 enabling a higher level of performance and realistic effects for OpenGL and next generation DirectX® 10 industry-leading professional
applications. Next-Generation Vertex and Pixel Programmability Quadro FX GPUs introduce infinite length vertex programs and dynamic flow control, removing the previous limits on complexity, and structure of shader programs. Quadro FX GPUs deliver sophisticated effects never before imagined for real-time graphics systems. CUDA Architecture NVIDIA® CUDA™ is a revolutionary parallel computing architecture for Quadro professional GPUs enabling breakthrough performance in areas such as video encoding, image processing, and accurate physics.
