The NVIDIA Quadro® FX 4400 sets a new bar for professional graphics,
shattering the limits of performance, programmability, precision, and
quality for professional CAD, DCC, and scientific applications. The
ultra-high end NVIDIA Quadro FX4400 by features a revolutionary new
architecture with 2x the geometry and fill rate, 5x the hardware pixel
read-back performance, 1.25x the memory bandwidth of previous generation
professional graphics, and 512MB ultra-fast GDDR3 memory. Implementation
of rotated-grid FSAA introduces far greater sophistication in the
multi-sampling pattern, significantly increasing color accuracy and the
visual quality of edges and lines without compromising performance.
KEY FEATURES & BENEFITS
Proven Professional Graphics Architecture Parallel vertex engines,
programmable pixel pipelines, and workstation specific features result
in the industry's highest application performance and quality.
Advanced Vertex and Pixel Programmability
Enables real-time shaders to simulate a wide range of physical effects
and surface properties.
Full 128-bit Precision Graphics Pipeline
Enables mathematical computations to maintain high accuracy, resulting
in unmatched visual quality.
12-bit Subpixel Precision
3x that of the nearest competitive professional graphics, 12-bit
subpixel precision delivers high geometric accuracy, eliminating
spreckles, cracks, and other rasterization anomalies.
High Quality Full-Scene Antialiasing (FSAA)
Up to 16x FSAA dramatically reduces visual aliasing artifacts or "jaggies"
at resolutions up to 3840x2400, resulting in highly realistic scenes.
New rotated grid FSAA algorithm (RGFSAA) delivers unprecedented quality
and performance.
High Precision Dynamic Range Imaging (HPDR) technology
Sets new standards for image clarity and quality through floating point
capabilities in shading, filtering, texturing and blending. Enables
unprecedented rendered image quality for visual effects processing.
Support for 32-bit floating point precision per component - an industry
exclusive.
Hardware-Accelerated Pixel Read-Back
Greater than 1.0GB/sec. pixel read-back performance delivers massive
host throughput, more than 5x the performance of previous generation
graphics systems.
PCI Express Support
Designed specifically to take advantage of the next-generation PCI
Express bus architecture. This new bus doubles the bandwidth of AGP 8X
delivering over 4 GB per second in both upstream and downstream data
transfers.
Unified Driver Architecture
Provides easy installation and manageability through a single unified
driver for large scale system deployment. The performance and power of
the NVIDIA Quadro FX are built on a solid foundation of quality
engineering. This engineering excellence is exemplified by the NVIDIA
Unified Driver Architecture (UDA), which is certified for quality by the
entire spectrum of CAD and DCC applications.
