NVIDIA today announced the Quadro GV100 graphics card with RTX technology for real-time raytracing lighting effects. Quadro graphics cards are professional-oriented and, according to NVIDIA, represent the most important breakthrough in computer graphics in 15 years.
Quadro GV100 Is The Fastest Computer Graphics Breakthrough In 15 Years, According To NVIDIA
The most remarkable breakthrough in computer graphics since the introduction of programmable shaders nearly two decades ago, NVIDIA RTX (when combined with the powerful Quadro GV100 GPU) enables real-time raytracing when running professional design and content creation applications.
Media and entertainment professionals can see and interact in their creations with the right light and shade, and perform sophisticated renderings up to 10 times faster than with a single CPU. Product designers and architects can create interactive, photorealistic visualizations of 3D models, all in real time.
NVIDIA Introduces Quadro GV100 Graphics Card with RTX Technology
NVIDIA has reinvented the workstation using raytracing technology optimized for our Volta architecture and combining it with the highest performance hardware ever made on a workstation,” said Bob Pette, vice president of professional visualization at NVIDIA. “Artists and designers can simulate and interact with their creations in ways never before possible, which will fundamentally change workflows in many industries.
The Quadro GV100 GPU comes with 32GB of VRAM memory, expandable to 64GB with multiple Quadro GPUs using NVIDIA NVLink interconnect technology, is the highest performance platform available for these applications. Based on NVIDIA’s Volta architecture, the GV100 features 7.4 teraflops of double precision, 14.8 teraflops of single precision and 118.5 teraflops of deep learning performance.
The NVIDIA Quadro GV100 GPU is now available on nvidia.com and, starting in April, from leading workstation manufacturers.
