The evidence of steps yet untaken, leaps still grounded in the now but with an eye toward the future...this is where I live, in the fastest changing world since the history of mankind. Dare to witness and participate in it, this time so singular in its speed and power. Share it with the future and present, read and post the record of its' passing.

Graphics board touts 4GB GPU memory
Posted Dec 26th, 08 at 05:12 PM by bbmf
PNY Technologies released its new ultra high-performance graphic boards, the NvidiaQuadro FX 5800 by PNY and Nvidia Quadro FX 4800 by PNY. The 5800 is touted as "the most powerful professional graphics board in graphics history."
Both of the scalable GPU accelerated solutions are available in Genlock/framelock and high-definition serial digital interface (HD-SDI) versions. Based on Nvidia's second generation unified architecture and offering up to 4GB GPU memory, which Nvidia says is an industry-first, they are designed to handle massive datasets and specialised needs for the visualisation and simulation, oil and gas exploration, and broadcast and film markets.
"With its enormous 4GB frame buffer and high performance, the Nvidia Quadro FX 5800 SDI by PNY provides GPU-centric applications like Assimilate's Scratch with immediate benefits and huge potential going forward," said Jeff Edson, president and CEO of Assimilate.
"By combining advanced visualisation and computational performance, these latest additions to the Nvidia Quadro FX ultra high-end professional graphics board family enable our partners to deliver next-generation solutions for large scale clusters, aerospace image generators, tiled wall displays, high-definition projection, as well as film and broadcast applications," said Jeff Medeiros, senior business development manager at PNY Technologies.
The new line up includes:
• Nvidia Quadro FX 5800 by PNY—it offers memory bandwidth of up to 102GB/s and 240 CUDA programmable parallel cores.
• Nvidia Quadro FX 4800 by PNY—features 1.5GB frame buffer with 76.8GB/s memory bandwidth. It delivers a second-generation Nvidia unified architecture GPU delivering up to 50 per cent increased performance over first-generation products through 192 processor cores. Both ultra high performance graphics boards are available in a:
• Genlock/frame lock version—capabilities provide the functionality required for advanced multi-system visualization environments.
• SDI version—Delivering uncompressed SDI output in 2K, HD or SD format, these graphics boards are the ultimate HD-SDI "live-to-air" broadcast and film solution.
Other features include interactive 4D modelling with time lapse capabilities; true 10bit colour enabling billions rather than millions of colour variations for rich, vivid image quality with the broadest dynamic range; Nvidia SLI technology for improved graphics performance; dual DisplayPort support for ultra-high resolution panels (up to 2,560 x 1,600); quad buffered stereo connector; dual-link DVI-I display connectivity; Nvidia PureVideo HD technology for outstanding picture clarity, smooth video playback, and accurate colour and precise image scaling for SD and HD content; and full Shader Model 4.0 and DirectX 10 capability support and full industry-standard OpenGL 2.1 support for Windows or Linux.
