NVIDIA
®
Unified Architecture
Industry’s first unified architecture designed to dynamically allocate geometry, shading, pixel,
and compute processing power to deliver optimized GPU performance
.
GPU Computing
NVIDIA CUDA
™
provides a C language environment and tool suite that unleashes new
capabilities to solve complex, visualization challenges such as real-time ray tracing and
interactive volume rendering.
Next-Generation Vertex and Pixel
Programmability Shader Model 4.0
Reference standard for shader model 4.0 enabling a higher level of performance and
ultra-realistic effects for next generation OpenGL and DirectX 10 industry-leading
professional applications.
Fast 3D Textures
Fast transfer and manipulation of 3D textures resulting in more interactive visualization of
large volumetric dataset
.
High Performance Display Outputs
Dual-link TMDS transmitter supports ultra-high-resolution panels (up to 2560 x 1600 @ 60Hz),
which result in amazing image quality producing detailed photorealistic images.
nView
®
Multi-Display Technology
1
The NVIDIA nView hardware and software technology combination delivers maximum flexibility
for multi-display options, and provides unprecedented end-user control of the
desktop experience.
Rotated-Grid Full-Scene Antialiasing
(RG FSAA)
The rotated grid FSAA sampling algorithm introduces far greater sophistication in the sampling
pattern, significantly increasing color accuracy and visual quality for edges and lines, reducing
“jaggies” while maintaining performance.
