* Highest Workstation Application Performance
   Next-generation architecture enables over 2x improvement in geometry and 
   fill rates with the industry's highest performance for professional CAD, 
   DCC, and visualization applications.
* 1024MB Ultra-Fast GDDR2
   Delivers high throughput for interactive visualization of large models 
   and high-performance for real-time processing of large textures and 
   frames and enables the highest quality and resolution full-scene 
   antialiasing (FSAA).
* Unmatched Color Precision
   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.
* Next-Generation Vertex and Pixel Programmability
   NVIDIA Quadro FX GPUs introduce infinite length vertex programs and 
   dynamic flow control, removing the previous limits on complexity and 
   structure of shader programs. With full support for Vertex and Shader 
   Model 3.0, NVIDIA Quadro FX GPUs deliver sophisticated effects never 
   before imagined for real-time graphics systems.
* Unparalleled Subpixel Precision
   12-bit subpixel precision delivers high geometric accuracy, eliminating 
   spreckles, cracks, and other rasterization anomalies.
* Hardware-Accelerated Pixel Read-Back
   Greater than 2.4GB/Sec., pixel read-back performance delivers massive 
   host throughout, more than 10x the performance of previous generation 
   graphics systems.
* Rotated Grid Full Screen Antialiasing (RG FSAA)
   RG FSAA sampling algorithm introduces far greater sophistication in the 
   sampling pattern, significantly increasing color accuracy and visual 
   quality for edges and lines, reducing "jaggies" while maintaining 
   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.
* NVIDIA PureVideo Technology
   NVIDIA PureVideo technology is the combination of high-definition video 
   processors and software that delivers unprecedented picture clarity, 
   smooth video, accurate color, and precise image scaling for SD and HD 
   video content. Features include high-quality scaling, spatial temporal 
   de-interlacing, inverse telecine, and high quality HD video playback 
   from DVD.
* Dual Dual-Link Digital Display Connectors
   Two dual-link TMDS transmitters support ultra high resolution panels (up 
   to 3840 x 2400 at 24Hz on each panel) - resulting in amazing image 
   quality and detailed photorealistic images.
* NVIDIA SLI Technology
   NVIDIA SLI technology enables dynamically scalable graphics performance, 
   enhanced image quality, and expanded display real estate.
