GPU Features
Next-Generation NVIDIA® CUDAT Architecture
Breakthrough NVIDIA CUDA parallel computing architecture, code named Fermi,
tightly integrates advanced visualization and compute features delivering
performance that greatly accelerates professional workflows.
NVIDIA® Scalable Geometry EngineT
Dramatically improves geometry performance across a broad range of CAD, DCC and
medical applications, enabling you to work interactively with models and scenes
that are an order of magnitude more complex than ever before.
Large Framebuffers with Ultra-Fast Bandwidth
Large GPU memory with fast bandwidth for display of complex models and scenes,
as well as computation of large datasets.
NVIDIA® Parallel DataCacheT
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 GigaThreadT Engine
Provides up to 10x faster context switching compared to previous generation
architectures, concurrent kernel execution, and improved thread block scheduling
Fast 3D Texture Transfer
Fast transfer and manipulation of 3D textures resulting in more interactive
visualization of large volumetric datasets.
Hardware 3D Window Clipping
Hardware accelerated clip regions (data transfer mechanism between a window and
the frame buffer) improve overall graphics performance by increasing transfer
speed between color buffer and frame buffer.
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.
Image Quality
Full-Scene Antialiasing (FSAA)
Up to 64X FSAA dramatically reduces visual aliasing artifacts or "jaggies,"
resulting in unparalleled image quality and highly realistic scenes.
GPU Tessellation with Shader Model 5.0
Quadro Tessellation Engines automatically generate finely detailed geometry, for
cinematic quality environments and scenes, without sacrificing performance.
16K Texture and Render Processing
The ability to texture from and render to 16K x 16K surfaces. Beneficial for
applications that demand the highest resolution and quality image processing.
NVIDIA High Precision High Dynamic Range (HDR)
Technology Sets new
standards for image clarity and quality through floating point capabilities in
shading, filtering, texturing, and blending. Enables unprecedented rendered
image quality for visual effects processing.
Display Features
High-Quality Display Connectors
Attaches to ultra-high-resolution panels producing phenomenal photorealistic
image quality from a range of display connectors. Through the GPU, supports two
active connectors including, dual-link DVI-I with up to 3840 x 2400 @ 24Hz,
DisplayPort with up to up to 2560 x 1600 @ 60Hz, or HDMI from a cable.
30-Bit Color Fidelity
30-bit color fidelity (10-bits per color) enables billions rather than millions
of color variations for rich, vivid image quality with the broadest dynamic
range.
OpenGL Quad Buffered Stereo Support
OpenGL Quad Buffered Stereo offers professional applications the capability of
smooth and immersive 3D Stereo experience.
