NVIDIA Quadro FX 3700

Revolutionary Visual Computing Solutions NVIDIA Quadro® FX 3700 graphics board delivers performance and quality on high-end CAD, DCC, and visualization applications to the professional user. Product Specifications Form Factor ATX, 4.38”(H) x 9.0” (L) Frame Buffer Memory 512MB GDDR3 Memory Interface 256-bit Memory Bandwidth 51.2GBps Max Power Consumption 78W Graphics Bus PCI Express x16 Display Connectors Dual DVI-I, Stereo Dual Link DVI Yes (2) Auxiliary Power Connectors Yes (1) Number of Slots 1 Thermal Solution Active Fansink Featuring NVIDIA’s new unified architecture, the Quadro FX 3700 professional graphics board dynamically allocates geometry, shading, pixel processing, and compute power to deliver optimized GPU performance while enabling Energy Star power savings. The reference standard for Shader Model 4.0, the Quadro FX 3700 enables next-generation, ultra-realistic, real-time OpenGL® and DirectX 10 visualization applications. With two dual- link DVI connectors, the Quadro FX 3700 also offers the industry’s best image quality at resolutions up to 2560 x 1600 @ 60Hz. The NVIDIA Quadro FX 3700 is the high- end solution in NVIDIA’s latest generation of unified-architecture, professional product offerings. The entire NVIDIA Quadro family takes computer-aided design (CAD), digital- content creation (DCC), and visualization applications to a new level of interactivity by enabling unprecedented programmability and precision. The industry’s leading workstation applications leverage these capabilities to deliver hardware-accelerated features, performance, and quality not found in other professional graphics solutions. From Quadro FX 5600 at the ultra-high-end, and Quadro FX 4600 and 3700 at the high-end, through Quadro FX 1700 at the mid-range, to Quadro FX 570 and 370 at the entry-level, Quadro delivers the productivity you need at every price.

NVIDIA® Unified Architecture Industry’s first unified architecture designed to dynamically allocate compute, geometry, shading, and pixel processing power to deliver optimized GPU performance. Shader Model 4.0: Next-Generation Vertex and Pixel Programmability Reference standard for shader model 4.0, enabling a higher performance and ultra-realistic effects in OpenGL and DirectX 10 professional applications. PCI Express 2.0 Support Doubles the data transfer rate up to 5 GBps per lane, for an aggregate bandwidth of 16 GBps bi-directional (8 GBps in each direction). GPU Computing NVIDIA CUDA™ provides a C language environment and tool suite that unleashes new computational capabilities to solve complex, visualization challenges such as real-time ray tracing and interactive volume rendering. NVIDIA SLI™ Technology NVIDIA SLI technology enables dynamically scalable graphics performance, enhanced image quality, and expanded display real-estate. Ultra-Quiet Design Acoustics at sub 40 db, for a quiet desktop environment. Full-Scene Antialiasing (FSAA) Up to 32x FSAA dramatically reduces visual aliasing artifacts or “jaggies,” resulting in highly realistic scenes. Essential for Microsoft Windows® Vista™ Offering an enriched 3D user interface, increased application performance, and the highest image quality, NVIDIA Quadro graphics boards and NVIDIA OpenGL ICD drivers are optimized for 32- and 64-bit architectures to enable the Windows Vista experience.
