Cg High-Level Graphics Shader Language
Cg—"C" for graphics—is a high-level, open-standard programming language for
OpenGL that takes advantage of the power of programmable GPUs. NVIDIA Quadro® FX
programmable graphics pipelines leverage high-level shading languages to enable
the creation and integration of real-time photorealistic effects into 3D models,
scenes, and designs. This represents a major leap forward in ease and speed for
the creation of real-time, realistic graphics within MCAD, DCC, and scientific
applications.
Frame Lock
Allows the display channels from multiple workstations to be synchronized, thus
creating one large "virtual display" that can be driven by a multisystem cluster
for performance scalability.
Full 128-Bit Precision Graphics Pipeline
Enables sophisticated mathematical computations to maintain high accuracy,
resulting in unmatched visual quality. Full IEEE 32-bit floating-point precision
per color component (RGBA) delivers millions of color variations with the
broadest dynamic range.
Full-Scene Antialiasing (FSAA)
Up to 32x SLIAA and 16x FSAA dramatically reduces visual aliasing artifacts or
"jaggies" at resolutions up to 1920x1200, resulting in highly realistic scenes.
Genlock
Also known as "house sync." Genlock allows the graphics output to synchronize to
an external source, typically for film and broadcast video applications.
Hardware 3D Window Clipping
Hardware accelerated clip regions (data transfer mechanism between a window and
the frame buffer) which improve overall graphics performance by increasing
transfer speed between color buffer and frame buffer.
Hardware-Accelerated Pixel Read-Back
Up to 2.4GB/sec pixel read-back performance delivers massive host throughput,
more than 10x the performance of previous generation graphic systems.
