2016 was a busy year for graphic card manufacturer NVIDIA. The company released its series 10 range of products based on its newest Pascal architecture for consumer grade computers, these included the GeForce GTX 1080, GTX 1070 and GTX 1060 cards which VRFocus compared. It didn’t stop there announcing the business class Quadro P6000, along with some impressive specs. Today the Quadro P6000 has been joined by three more virtual reality (VR) ready cards for business use.
Joining the Quadro lineup are the P4000, P5000 and the mid-range topping GP100. Aimed at professionals across industries including entertainment, design, engineering, architecture, medicine and VR, the range is designed to give the optimum visual performance whilst streamlining workflows.
The P4000 suits applications such as large 3D CAD models, advanced DCC and medical imaging, with the P5000 adding complex DCC effects 3D medical imaging recon and seismic exploration as well. Jumping to the P6000 includes photo realistic rendering, even larger CAD models and GPGPU compute functionality, with the GP100 designed for the most demanding rendering applications. Software such as Adobe CC Premier Pro, After Effects, Autodesk Maya, 3ds Max and Nuke will work with any of the aforementioned cards.
While NVIDIA has released the specs for the cards, at present prices are still unavailable. The Quadro range is set to arrive in March 2017, with individual dates yet to be revealed, but a staggered launch is likely just as the company did for the 10 series range.
