Built on the groundbreaking NVIDIA Fermi architecture, new NVIDIA Quadro by PNY graphics boards perform radically faster on a broad range of design, animation, visualization and video applications

PNY has announced that its key channel partners are now integrating the next generation of NVIDIA Quadro by PNY Technologies graphics solutions, based on the revolutionary NVIDIA Fermi architecture, into their high performance professional workstation systems.  Demonstrations of the newest Quadro professional graphics solutions powering real world CAD, Digital Content Creation, large scale visualization as well as film and video applications can be seen in the PNY Technologies booth (#819) at SIGGRAPH 2010, now through July 29 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

The new line-up of NVIDIA Quadro by PNY professional graphics boards includes:

NVIDIA Quadro 6000 by PNY- Delivering an industry first 6 GB of fast GDDR5 memory, 448 NVIDIA CUDA parallel processing cores, Error Correction Codes (ECC) memory, and fast, true IEEE double precision floating point performance, the ultra high performance Quadro 6000 enables incredible interactivity on very large, datasets and compute-intensive projects.  Also available in SDI I/O and G-Sync versions.

NVIDIA Quadro 5000 by PNY - Providing 2.5 GB GDDR5 graphics memory, 352 CUDA cores, ECC and fast double precision, the high-end Quadro 5000 easily handles the display of complex models and scenes. Also available in SDI I/O and G-Sync versions.

NVIDIA Quadro 4000 by PNY - Offering 2 GB GDDR5 graphics memory, 256 CUDA cores, fast double precision plus Dual link DVI and DisplayPort connectors, this high-end graphics board is ideal for demanding CAD/CAM, 3D design and DCC applications. Also available in SDI I/O versions.

The new family of NVIDIA Quadro by PNY professional graphics solutions incorporates many other new features such as NVIDIA's new Scalable Geometry Engine technology, which can deliver an unheard of 1.3 billion triangles per second.  Combined with a 30-bit color engine, the new Quadro family offers uncompromising performance and the most realistic, vivid image quality.

The NVIDIA Quadro by PNY graphics boards also support Microsoft DirectX 11.0 and Open GL 4.1, Shader Model 5.0 hardware acceleration and have the ability to drive a variety of display types, including: CRTs, Digital Flat Panels, Projectors and HDTVs.

"With the introduction of these new Fermi based Quadro products, our channel partners can deliver the ultimate graphics performance to meet their clients most demanding application needs, including stereoscopic 3D, scalable visualization and 3D high-definition broadcasting," said Jeff Medeiros, director of marketing, PNY Technologies.

This new generation of NVIDIA Quadro by PNY Technologies graphics boards will be available to system integrators, value-added resellers, and distributors throughout North America.  PNY Technologies, Inc is the authorized NVIDIA Quadro channel partner for North America and Europe.  NVIDIA Quadro by PNY graphics boards come with a three-year warranty.  For additional information, visit PNY at www.pny.com/quadro.

Testimonials

"With larger 6GB memory capacity, ECC memory integrity, superior double-precision GPU-computing performance via CUDA, and also superior 3D-rendering performance and quality via OpenGL, NVIDIA Quadro 6000 by PNY is the clear next-generation choice for our High-Performance Computing customers," said Craig Dunwoody, CTO, GraphStream Incorporated.  "No other GPU product delivers a feature set that is even remotely comparable."

"The new NVIDIA Quadro by PNY Graphics Boards are enabling our software partners and customers the power to do things graphically, through the gpu, that we never thought possible," said Scott Leif, president of Globalstor.  "This technology coupled with our ExtremeStor-DI really brings graphics management to the next level."

"By integrating the new NVIDIA Quadro by PNY boards into our 3DBOXX Series workstations, we are now the first OEM to offer elite, four-GPU systems, which provide designers, engineers, scientists, and others with unparalleled power to handle the most complex and demanding projects," said Shoaib Mohammad, Director of Marketing and Business Development at BOXX.

"3D and RED digital film and imagery projects share common needs for color grading and finishing at post houses,"  said Jeff Edson, CEO at ASSIMILATE.  "Both require the features, performance and streamlined data workflow of SCRATCH, and as large file-based projects, both have a need for speed that the new NVIDIA Quadro SDI by PNY graphics boards provide.  Combined together you have a powerhouse DI solution for even the most complex visual projects."
