The NVIDIA Quadro FX by PNY family of professional GPU's (graphics processing units) delivers fast application performance and the highest quality professional graphics. In addition to performance and quality, NVIDIA Quadro FX by PNY takes the leading computer- aided design (CAD) and digital content creation (DCC) applications to a new level of interactivity by enabling unprecedented capabilities in programmability and precision. NVIDIA Quadro FX by PNY allows styling and production rendering to become integral functions of the design workflow, thereby shortening the production process and enabling faster time to market. KEY FEATURES & BENEFITS NVIDIA QUADRO FX by PNY ARCHITECTURE ACHIEVES UNPRECEDENTED PERFORMANCE Takes application performance to new levels by featuring three parallel vertex engines, a radically new line engine, the industry's first on-chip vertex cache, and eight fully programmable pixel pipelines coupled to a high-speed graphics DRAM bus. ADVANCED PROGRAMMABILITY EMPOWERS A NEW CLASS OF APPLICATIONS The programmability of the NVIDIA Quadro FX architecture empowers the industry's leading OpenGL® and DirectX® workstation applications to now make the production rendering process an integral part of real-time design. This reduces design cycles, increases productivity, and accelerates time-to-market. FULL 128-BIT FLOATING-POINT PRECISION DELIVERS THE INDUSTRY'S HIGHEST WORKSTATION QUALITY Features 128-bit IEEE floating-point precision, making available millions of colors in a broad dynamic range. This results in the highest level of accuracy and the ultimate in visual quality. CERTIFIED FOR THE HIGHEST QUALITY EXPERIENCE WITH THE MOST DEMANDING WORKSTATION APPLICATIONS The performance and power of the NVIDIA Quadro FX by PNY are built on a solid foundation of quality engineering. This engineering excellence is exemplified by the NVIDIA Unified Driver Architecture (UDA), which is certified for quality by the entire spectrum of CAD and DCC applications.   PERFORMANCE FEATURES Full 128-bit floating-point precision pipeline 12-bit subpixel precision Hardware accelerated antialiased points & lines High-speed 256MB GDDR3 memory 256-bit GDDR3 Memory Interface Fully programmable GPU (OpenGL 2.0/DirectX 9.0 class) Hardware OpenGL overlay planes Multi-sampling RG FSAA – Rotated Grid Full Scene Antialiasing High Precision Dynamic Range Imaging (HPDR) Hardware accelerated two-sided lighting Next generation vertex and pixel level programmability Two Dual-Link TMDS transmitter Dual DVI-I output display connectors OpenGL quad-buffered stereo (3-pin sync connector) AGP 8X with Fast Write ATX Form Factor Window ID Clipping Functionality PACKAGE CONTAINS NVIDIA Quadro FX 4000 AGP Graphics Card 2-DVI-I to VGA Adapters CD-ROM Containing: Drivers for Windows XP, 2000 & NT including DirectX 9.0 and OpenGL 2.0 support Detailed Installation Guide Quickstart Installation Guide Quadro® Application Utilities (MAXtreme™, POWERdraft™)
