Used PNY NVIDIA Quadro K4200 Professional Graphics Card

With a memory bandwidth of 173 GB/s, the NVIDIA Quadro K4200 Professional Graphics Card from PNY Technologies is designed for applications such as 3D graphics and video editing where having a dedicated graphics card is often essential. It features 1344 CUDA Cores which not only act as shaders for rendering display graphics, they also allow API-enabled applications that support GPU acceleration to perform hundreds of computations simultaneously. To help move data to and from these mini processors as efficiently as possible, there is 4GB of GDDR5 RAM over a 256-bit memory interface.

Not just for compute power, the K4200 can be used to connect displays as well. It features a DVI-I dual-link port, and a VGA to DVI adapter is included for legacy analog displays. In addition, there are two DisplayPort ports with DP 1.2 support meaning you can connect 4K displays or use an MST hub to connect multiple displays to one output. Finally, a second PCIe bracket is included that features a stereo connector compatible with sync hardware used by select professional 3D systems.

Popular API Support

Supports Shader Model 5.0, OpenGL 4.4, DirectX 11, CUDA, DirectComputer, OpenCL, and other APIs to provide software with direct, low-level access to the graphics processing and computational power of the card

Supports DP 1.2 MST Technology

Not only can the card support three directly connected displays, thanks to MST (Multi Stream Transport) technology it is possible to drive up to four displays through a single DisplayPort output when using separately available MST hubs or DP 1.2 compatible monitors with daisy-chaining capability

Parallel Computing Capabilities

• SMX Architecture: a streaming multi-processor design that delivers greater processing power and efficiency than earlier architectures
• Support for all CUDA 6 features, including Unified Memory, Dynamic Parallelism and Dedicated Shared Memory
• Programming support for CUDA C, CUDA C++, DirectCompute 5.0, OpenCL, Python, and Fortran

Professional 3D Support

The included Stereo Connector Bracket features a 3-pin mini-DIN port for connecting the card to sync hardware used in conjunction with select professional active 3D technologies. In most cases, this port would be connected to an IR emitter used to trigger the shutters in active 3D glasses. In some cases it can also be hard-wired directly to the glasses. Both emitter and glasses are available separately

NVIDIA Quadro Sync

Allows multiple graphics cards - even ones installed in different computers - to be synchronized for broadcast applications or to create high-resolution "video walls". Can also be used in 3D systems where the "left" and "right" eye images each come from a separate projector

NVIDIA GPU Boost: Automatically increases GPU engine throughput to maximize application performance

NVIDIA Scalable Geometry Engine

Improves geometry performance across a broad range of CAD, DCC, and medical applications, enabling you to work interactively with models and scenes that are much more complex than ever before

Audio Support

Supported via DisplayPort and HDMI (HDMI requires separately available DisplayPort to HDMI adapter):

• Dolby Digital (AC3), DTS 5.1, multi-channel (7.1) LPCM, Dolby Digital Plus (DD+), and MPEG-2/MPEG-4 AAC, DTS-HD, TrueHD
• Data rates of 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176 kHz, and 192 kHz
• Word sizes of 16-bit, 20-bit, and 24-bit

NVIDIA Parallel DataCache

Supports a true cache hierarchy combined with on-chip shared memory. L1 and L2 caches drive exception throughput, accelerating features such as real-time ray tracing, physics, and texture filtering

HD-SDI Capture and Output Compatible

When combined with compatible HD-SDI I/O hardware it is possible to process video directly with the graphics card for better performance and lower latency than software-centric solutions that merely offload compute data to the GPU for accelerated processing

Ultra-Quiet Cooling System

Virtually silent cooling design enables lower acoustics for an ultra-quiet desktop environment

Additional Features

• Unified driver architecture (UDA) for simplified deployment and management in an enterprise setting
• Enterprise management tools
• Supports HBR2: Allows the data from the DisplayPort output to travel at up to 5.4 GB/s
• Internal 400 MHz DAC DVI-I output supporting analog display up to 2048 x 1536 at 85 Hz
• Supports Quad buffered stereo 3D content for OpenGL-based 3D software
• Underscan/overscan compensation and hardware scaling
• Support for NVIDIA Quadro Mosaic, NVIDIA NVIEW multi-display technology, NVIDIA Enterprise Management Tools
• Bindless textures
• Supports Deep Color (12-bit per channel color)
• Supports multi GPU configurations when combined with other compatible NVIDIA-based devices

PCI Express 2.0 Host Interface

PCIe 2.0 doubles the bandwidth for a given interface width compared to PCIe 1.0. For example, an x8 slot in PCIe 2.0 is the equivalent of a x16 slot in PCIe 1.0
