Nvidia G92 based Quadro FX 3700

NVIDIA (Nasdaq: NVDA - News), the world leader in visual computingtechnologies, once again takes the lead in improving productivity forcomputer-aided design (CAD) and digital content creators with the announcementof the NVIDIA Quadro® FX 3700, a high-end graphics board capable of delivering aperformance increase of up to 2X as compared to the previous generation ofproduct.

"Dassault Systemes' PLM solutions customers have always demanded the optimalcombination of large-model performance and feature set from their graphicsolutions. Now with the tight integration of GPU-based vertex scaling and CgFX-basedrealistic material shaders within CATIA, the NVIDIA Quadro FX 3700 comes at theideal time and with the ideal combination of performance and features," saidChristophe Delattre, Dassault Systemes, R&D manager, Visualization. "Wecertainly feel the Quadro FX 3700 will address our users' demandingexpectations."

The Quadro FX 3700 graphics board offers high throughput for interactivevisualization, and with 112 parallel processors, 512 MB of onboard graphicsmemory, and a 256-bit memory interface, the card easily manages the large modelsand complex, real-time shaders that dominate the CAD and digital contentcreation (DCC) markets. To greatly streamline the user experience, the Quadro FX3700 graphics board incorporates the NVIDIA® Application Configuration Engine(ACE), which automatically configures the graphics hardware and software todeliver maximum application performance. The board also offers award-winning SLItechnology to dynamically scale graphics performance, enhance image quality, andexpand display real estate.

The advanced NVIDIA Unifed Architecture, introduced last year, enablessophisticated shaders to simulate a virtually unlimited range of physicalcharacteristics, such as lighting effects (dispersion, reflection, refraction,BRDF models) and physical surface properties (casting effects, porosity, moldedsurfaces). Real-time shaders allow these effects to be combined and modifiedinteractively, something that is impossible with simple 2D static texture maps.

The Quadro FX 3700 graphics board also offers PCI-Express Gen 2 support,essentially doubling the data transfer rate between the GPU and the Gen 2chipsets to a blazing fast 16 Gbps. Also, being Energy Star 4.0 compliant, theQuadro FX 3700 graphics board consumes less than 80 watts of power for improvedenergy management.

"The NVIDIA Quadro FX 3700 graphics board is proof positive that NVIDIAcontinues to invest heavily in leading-edge solutions for professional users,"said Dan Vivoli, executive vice president of marketing at NVIDIA. "It combinesrich features with outstanding performance to successfully complete atop-to-bottom series of professional visualization solutions that are unmatchedin the industry."

The Quadro FX 3700 graphics board supports the NVIDIA CUDA(TM) technology, aC-language development environment for NVIDIA GPUs that allows applicationdevelopers to utilize the massively parallel computation power of the Quadro FX3700 graphics board to greatly reduce the time it takes to solve complexvisualization problems.

NVIDIA Quadro solutions are widely available through leading PC manufacturerslike HP, Dell, IBM, and Sun; leading workstation system integrators; and NVIDIAchannel partners PNY Technologies (US and EMEA), Leadtek (APAC), and Elsa(Japan).
