Nvidia has announced a new, professional graphics solution that it claims provides up to five times faster performance over high end consumer gaming cards and up to 10 times improvement when running CAD/CAM applications.
The Quadro 400 gpu is designed for use with professional applications such as Autodesk AutoCAD and consumes less than 35W. Its low profile footprint means it can fit into any workstation, including small form factor systems. It features 512MB of ddr3 memory and a 30bit colour engine with a range of more than 1billion colour variations.
"Designers and engineers, whether designing the largest assemblies or smallest components, rely on Quadro," said Jeff Brown, general manager, Professional Solutions Group, Nvidia. "The Quadro 400 is the right tool to help ensure that job gets done the right way, especially when it comes to running professional apps like Autodesk AutoCAD."
Additional features include unified driver architecture, hardware 3d window clipping, high quality display connectivity and Nvidia's Mosaic Technology, which allows users to enhance their workspace across up to eight displays. It also supports Nvidia 3D Vision and 3D Vision Pro active shutter glasses 3d technology to delivers stereoscopic 3d visualisation from desktop workstations to collaborative work spaces.
