Both NVIDIA and AMD are waiting for compelling GPGPU
applications, software than takes advantage of their
GPU architectures to achieve visible levels of acceleration
through multi-threading. Photoshop and Premiere are
the first widely used non-industrial and non-scientific
applications that integrate such capability and we
recently confirmed that graphics cards in fact do
provide impressive performance improvements in Photoshop
CS4. So it is not really surprising that NVIDIA follows
up with a dedicated product to support these claims.
The company just announced the Quadro CX, a workstation-class
graphics card that promises the best performance
for the new GPU-optimized features of Adobe Creative
Suite 4.

Youre going to see a major real-time performance
boost with this puppy, especially when jumping to
1.5GB of GDDR3. The card retails at about $2000 and
drivers are currently only available for Windows,
hopefully Mac isnt far behind.
NVIDIA does graphics card for Adobe
NVIDIA is sticking with its GP-GPU program and its
latest addition to its range of professional graphics
cards is the Quadro CX which offers GPU acceleration
for the Adobe's new Creative Suite 4. The Quadro CX
seems to be using a Geforce GTX 260 GPU, as it has
192 CUDA parallel processors cores as NVIDIA likes
to call the Shaders in this instance.
New NVIDIA Quadro
CX is a $2k Photoshop User's Dream
NVIDIA introduced its new accelerator for Adobe Creative
Suite 4 software, the NVIDIA Quadro CX. The Quadro
CX was architected to deliver the best performance
for the new GPU-optimized features of Adobe Creative
Suite 4. If you have $2,000 you can take your Photoshop
experience to completely new level.
NVIDIA UNVEILS
GRAPHICS ACCELERATOR FOR ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE
NVIDIA on Thursday launched a graphics accelerator
for Adobe Creative Suite 4, giving professionals the
option of higher performance when adding graphics
and visual effects to video. The release of Quadro
CX comes a day after NVIDIA introduced the GeForce
9400M, a graphics processor for notebooks. Apple chief
executive Steve Jobs this week praised the performance
of the GPU in announcing that it would be in Apple's
new MacBook, MacBook Pro, and MacBook Air. The announcement
was a big win for NVIDIA, whose product was chosen
over Intel's integrated graphics chipset. ***********
Apple's decision to choose NVIDIA over Intel reflects
the heated competition among chipmakers in the growing
use of graphics in PCs. The third major competitor
in the market is Advanced Micro Devices' ATI division.
NVIDIA Quadro CX
launched for Adobe Creative Suite users
Adobe has just launched their latest product suite
Adobe Creative Suite 4. NVIDIA has now announced the
launch of their Quadro CX graphics accelerator which
is aimed at the users of this application suite. NVIDIA
said that this hardware add-on would enable the professionals
to get improved performance from the Adobes
Creative Suite.
NVIDIA Quadro CX:
Adobe CS4-specific GPU
Heavy users of Adobe Creative Suite 4 will know that
the only thing worse than a hangover for slowing the
design process is a computer unable to keep up. CS4
feasts on processor cycles like supermodels crave
bacon; thankfully heres NVIDIA to the rescue
with their Quadro CX, a PCI-E card dedicated to giving
the graphics software all the grunt it needs.
SlipperyBrick
The GPU has come of age and is no longer something
that titillates hoards of gamers with promises of
better video game graphics alone. Today the GPU can
do many things from being used as a super computing
platform to greatly accelerating many applications
more efficiently than a CPU can. One of the biggest
new features in Adobe Creative Suite 4 introduced
not so long ago was the ability for the software to
take advantage of the power of the GPU for faster
processing and applying of things like filters. NVIDIA
has announced a new GPU-based product called the Quadro
CX that is designed specifically to accelerate Creative
Suite 4.
NVIDIA Releases
Quadro CX GPU - Optimized for Creative Suite 4
Well, for more proof that NVIDIA is taking things
seriously, they've launched a new Quadro model that's
touted as being the "ultimate" GPU for use
with CS4. Compared to the desktop GPUs, the Quadro
CX seems most comparable to the GTX 260, with 192
processors, but that's where the similarities end.
The new card features 1.5GB of GDDR3 with a 384-bit
memory bus (the GTX 260/280 have 448-bit), as well
as a smaller TDP of 150W.
NVIDIA introduces
graphics accelerator for Creative Suite
NVIDIA (Nasdaq:NVDA), a specialist in visual computing
technologies, today (16 October) introduced the NVIDIA
Quadro CX GPU, which is designed to deliver the best
performance for the new GPU-optimised features of
Adobe Creative Suite 4 (CS4).
Adobe Creative
Suite Users Get NVIDIA Present
Does that sound like a lot of horsepower for Photoshop
and Premiere Pro? Theres never too much power
when manipulating hi-res artwork and video. A
critical element of CS4 was to capture the enormous
power of the GPU, said John Loiacono, senior
vice president of Creative Solutions at Adobe. The
difference is astounding. Performance is important
to creative professionals and with the NVIDIA GPU,
they are assured to be able to interact with images
and videos in a much faster, smoother, more engaging
way.
NVIDIA Releases
Quadro CX for CS4 Acceleration
NVIDIA has just released its new Quadro CX graphics
card. Its been designed in conjunction with
Adobe to specifically accelerate certain features
of the recently announced CS4 suite. I attended an
online demo yesterday and the technology involved
looked very impressive.
