NVIDIA QUADRO FX ARCHITECTURE ACHIEVES UNPRECEDENTED PERFORMANCE
The NVIDIA Quadro® FX 1400 by PNY mid-range professional graphic board provides the best blend of quality, precision, performance, programmability and price for all professional 3D applications.

The NVIDIA Quadro FX architecture takes application performance to new levels by featuring an array of parallel vertex engines, a radically new line engine and fully programmable pixel pipelines coupled to a high-speed graphics DRAM bus. Pipeline efficiency is further multiplied by NVIDIA’s next-generation crossbar memory architecture, enabling occlusion-culling, lossless depth Z-buffer, and color compression.

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.

KEY FEATURES & BENEFITS
Proven Workstation 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 workstation graphics, 12-bit subpixel precision delivers high geometric accuracy, eliminating spreckles, cracks, and other rasterization anomalies.
