Nvidia has unveiled two new Pascal-based Quadro graphics cards, to follow on from its fresh consumer offerings (which run from the GTX 1060 up to the new Titan).
The Quadro P6000 and P5000 are the company’s heavy-duty workstation-targeted cards, promising much faster performance for the likes of scientific and engineering workloads, VR, demanding video processing and so forth.
The P6000 sports 3,840 cores and offers a total of 12 TFlops of compute power, along with 24GB of GDDR5X memory. Nvidia claims it boasts up to an 80% increase in performance when run with the firm’s own internal VR benchmarks, compared to the previous generation (Maxwell) cards.
Highly refreshing
The maximum power consumption of the card is 250W, and you get one DVI-D port, and no less than four DisplayPorts – and because these are DisplayPort 1.4, the card is capable of coping with no less than four 4K monitors running at a refresh rate of 120Hz.
As for the P5000, that offers 2,560 cores with 8.9 TFlops of compute power and 16GB of on-board memory. It can chug 180W going full-pelt and offers the same complement of ports as the P6000.
The new Quadro offerings should arrive in October with exact pricing still to be …read more
