PNY Technologies(R) Delivers New Breakthrough NVIDIA Quadro(R) FX 4600 and Quadro FX 5600 Solutions for Advanced Visualization.PARSIPPANY, N.J. -- PNY Technologies PNY Technologies, Inc. is an American computer hardware company established in 1985. PNY is headquartered in Parsippany, New Jersey and maintains offices and manufacturing facilities in the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Taiwan. , the supplier and marketer of NVIDIA Quadro The NVIDIA Quadro is a series of AGP and PCI Express graphics cards created by the NVIDIA Corporation. The cards are designed to accelerate CAD (Computer-Aided Design) and DCC (digital content creation) and are usually found in workstations. by PNY PNY Piedmont Natural Gas (stock symbol) professional graphics boards announced today the immediate availability of next generation NVIDIA Quadro by PNY solutions based on new NVIDIA Quadro FX 4600 and FX 5600 graphics, and NVIDIA GSync genlock/frame lock and HD SDI (1) (Serial Digital Interface) A physical interface widely used for transmitting digital video in various formats. For electrical transmission, it uses a high grade of coaxial cable and a single BNC connector with Teflon insulation. options. These new ultra high-end professional graphics solutions meet the challenges of the most complex 3D design, DCC (1) (Direct Cable Connection) A Windows 95/98 feature that allows PCs to be cabled together for data transfer. DCC actually sets up a network connection between the two machines. , visualization, scientific, and broadcast applications with a new unified architecture, Shader Model 4.0 technology, large frame buffers, and GPU GPU: see secret police. (Graphics Processing Unit) A specialized logic chip devoted to rendering 2D or 3D images. Display adapters contain one or more GPUs for fast graphics rendering. computing for visualization technology. The new NVIDIA Quadro by PNY solutions include: * NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600 by PNY Technologies([R]) - Features an industry-first 1.5GB frame buffer with memory bandwidth Memory bandwidth is the rate at which data can be read from or stored into a semiconductor memory by a processor. Memory bandwidth is usually expressed in units of bytes/second, though this can vary for systems with natural data sizes that are not a multiple of the commonly used of up to 76.8GB/sec for interactive visualization Interactive visualization is a branch of graphic visualization in computer science that studies how humans interact with computers to create graphic illustrations of information and how this process can be made more efficient. and processing of large textures and frames. This solution also offers full Windows([R]) Vista([TM]) compatibility, compute programmability, and support for advanced 32- or 64-bit workstation architectures. * NVIDIA Quadro FX 4600 by PNY Technologies([R]) - Offers ultra high-end performance, compatibility with all Windows Vista features, a large 768MB frame buffer with memory bandwidth of up to 57.6GB/sec., and 32- or 64-bit driver support enabling the visualization of the largest 64-bit datasets. The new NVIDIA Unified Architecture dynamically allocates compute, geometry, shading and pixel processing power for optimized GPU performance in any application. Full Shader Model 4.0 and DirectX([R]) 10 capability support the new Microsoft Windows Vista user interface, future-proofing these solutions for next-generation applications by incorporating advanced Vista capabilities. Full industry-standard OpenGL([R]) 2.1 support for Windows or Linux assures forward and backward compatibility with the largest possible library of professional graphics solutions available. GPU computing for visualization incorporates NVIDIA CUDA CUDA Compute Unified Device Architecture (Nvidia) CUDA Capacitive Unit Discharge ASIC (Apple Computers) ([TM]) (Compute Unified Device Architecture) technology, which allows developers to fully access advanced compute capabilities on the CPU CPU in full central processing unit Principal component of a digital computer, composed of a control unit, an instruction-decoding unit, and an arithmetic-logic unit. using the C programming language. Other standout features include NVIDIA SLI (Scalable Link Interface) A multi-GPU interface from NVIDIA for connecting two or four NVIDIA display adapters together for faster graphics rendering on one monitor or two monitors. ([TM]) technology for improved graphics performance; dual dual-link display connectivity; and NVIDIA PureVideo([TM]) HD technology for outstanding picture clarity, smooth video playback, and accurate color and precise image scaling for SD and HD content. "Advanced visualization applications such as automotive design or oil and gas exploration continue to push the limits of workstation graphics," said Carl Flygare, Quadro product marketing manager at PNY Technologies. "The new NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600 and Quadro FX 4600 by PNY deliver the advanced features, accessible programmability, and record shattering performance customers both need and expect of NVIDIA solutions." "Our latest NVIDIA Quadro unified architecture delivers the greatest generational leap in company history," said Jeff Brown, general manager, Professional Solutions Group, NVIDIA. "By incorporating new features such as Shader Model 4.0, the ability to do compute functions on the GPU, and extremely large frame buffers, the NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600 and Quadro FX 4600 by PNY offer the best solutions for advanced visualization across a variety of disciplines." The NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600 by PNY and the NVIDIA Quadro FX 4600 by PNY professional graphics boards will be available to system integrators, value-added resellers, and distributors throughout North and South America.
