[QUOTE="chanster, post: 2384350, member: 53755"] Quoted from Nvidia 12-Bit Subpixel Precision 3x that of the nearest competitive workstation graphics, 12-bit sub-pixel precision delivers high geometric accuracy, eliminating spreckles, cracks, and other rasterization anomalies. 32-Bit Floating Point Precision Sets new standards for image clarity and quality through 32-bit floating point capabilities in shading, filtering, texturing, and blending. Enables unprecedented rendered image quality for visual effects processing. 32-Bit Filtering and Blending Enables unprecedented rendered image quality for visual effects processing. Advanced Color Compression, Early Z-Cull Improved pipeline color compression and early z-culling to increase effective bandwidth and improve rendering efficiency and performance. Cg High-Level Graphics Shader Language Cg—"C" for graphics—is a high-level, open-standard programming language for OpenGL that takes advantage of the power of programmable GPUs. NVIDIA Quadro FX programmable graphics pipelines leverage high-level shading languages to enable the creation and integration of real-time photorealistic effects into 3D models, scenes, and designs. This represents a major leap forward in ease and speed for the creation of real-time, realistic graphics within MCAD, DCC, and scientific applications. 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 best Windows® Vista™ experience. Frame Synchronization (G-Sync Option) Allows the display channels from multiple workstations to be synchronized, thus creating one large "virtual display" that can be driven by a multisystem cluster for performance scalability. Full 128-Bit Precision Graphics Pipeline Enables sophisticated mathematical computations to maintain high accuracy, resulting in unmatched visual quality. Full IEEE 32-bit floating-point precision per color component (RGBA) delivers millions of color variations with the broadest dynamic range. Full-Scene Antialiasing (FSAA) Up to 32x SLIAA and 16x FSAA dramatically reduces visual aliasing artifacts or "jaggies" at resolutions up to 1920x1200, resulting in highly realistic scenes. Genlock/Frame Lock (G-Sync Option) Also known as "house sync." Genlock allows the graphics output to synchronized to an external source, typically for film and broadcast video applications. Hardware 3D Window Clipping Hardware accelerated clip regions (data transfer mechanism between a window and the frame buffer) which improve overall graphics performance by increasing transfer speed between color buffer and frame buffer. Hardware-Accelerated Pixel Read-Back Up to 2.4GB/sec pixel read-back performance delivers massive host throughput, more than 10x the performance of previous generation graphic systems. Highest Workstation Application Performance Next-generation architecture enables over 2x improvement in geometry and fill rates with the industry's highest performance for professional CAD, DCC, and scientific applications. High-Performance Display Outputs 400MHz RAMDACs and up to two DVI digital connectors drive the highest resolution digital displays available on the market. NVIDIA High Precision, High Dynamic-Range Technology Sets new standards for image clarity and quality through floating point capabilities in shading, filtering, texturing, and blending. Enables unprecedented rendered image quality for visual effects processing. NVIDIA PureVideo Technology NVIDIA PureVideo™ technology is the combination of high-definition video processors and software that delivers unprecedented picture clarity, smooth video, accurate color, and precise image scaling for SD and HD video content. Features include, high-quality scaling, spatial temporal de-interlacing, inverse telecine, and high quality HD video playback from DVD. NVIDIA PureVideo HD Technology The ultimate high-definition movie experience on your PC by combining high-definition movie decode acceleration and post-processing, HDCP circuitry, and integration with HD movie players. It delivers superb picture quality for all video formats, as well as stunning HD DVD HD DVD and Blu-ray movies—with low CPU utilization and power consumption. NVIDIA Quadro Unified Memory Architecture Allows for superior memory management, which efficiently allocates and shares memory resources between concurrent graphics windows and applications. NVIDIA SLI™ Technology A revolutionary platform innovation that enables professional users to dynamically scale graphics performance, enhance image quality, and expand display real estate. Available on NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600, 5500, 4600, 4500, 3500, and 3450 GPUs. NVIDIA Unified Architecture Industry's first unified architecture designed to dynamically allocate compute, geometry, shading and pixel processing power to deliver optimized GPU performance. nView Multi-Display Technology The NVIDIA® nView® hardware and software technology combination delivers maximum flexibility for multi-display options, and provides unprecedented end-user control of the desktop experience. NVIDIA GPUs are designed to support multi-displays, but graphics cards vary. Please verify multi-display support in the graphics card before purchasing. PCI Express Certified PCI Express is a new Intel bus architecture that doubles the bandwidth of the AGP 8X bus, delivering greater than 2GB/sec. in both upstream and downstream data transfers. Quad Buffered Stereo Offers enhanced visual experience for professional applications that demand stereo viewing capability. Rotated-Grid Full-Scene Antialiasing (RG FSAA) The rotated grid FSAA sampling algorithm introduces far greater sophistication in the sampling pattern, significantly increasing color accuracy and visual quality for edges and lines, reducing "jaggies" while maintaining performance. Unified Driver Architecture (UDA) The NVIDIA UDA guarantees forward and backward compatibility with software drivers. Simplifies upgrading to a new NVIDIA product because all NVIDIA products work with the same driver software." Many of the above features are not included in the geforce card. Driver based, hardware based i don't know....Well more memory is hardware based....Some of the "better picture clarity" features are also there if you read.AFAIK the Quadro delivers superior picture quality for all video formats and Animation apps. Then by all means you are correct. But note that the Nvidia can also enable AA. sometimes you get better FPS than the ATI sometimes you don't as Anusha said. I also can direct you to links stating that the GTX beats the 4850 when AA is enabled. I put toms first:D [/QUOTE]
