OMFG Quadro 5500 is out!!

Cool. Now I am no longer under NDA about it. 🙂

So who would use it? Those who are PCIe bus limited like myself. Comparing 8x PCIe and 16x PCIe, I see a 17% reduction in framerate when rendering on a single GPU. Sorry, but 512MB of memory does not cut it anymore for me. It also allows for larger volume renderings on a graphics card.

Now the only question is where is it for sale?

HOLY CRAP!

EDIT: This card pwns the 4500, and is apparently a competetor to the ATI Fire GL 7350. Text


Got a link for an actual review??? cause that crappy link told or showed me very little...

Any Spec scores yet??? cause my converted 6800 (non GT) killed the best 4000 systems at spec...

I would like to know how far I am behind now....
 
"...and support for 2 ultra-high resolution (3840 x 2400) digital panels."

Bam! 😀
 
^^

OMFG! Didn't see that before :shocked:


That would be sooo awesome :shocked:



It must have 4 dual link DVI ports then I'm guessing. because each 3840x2400 panel takes 2 dual link dvi ports to run. OMFG Imaginve 4 dell 30" displays on that thing! Imagine 8 on SLI!!!! :shocked: :shocked:


Sorry but I havn't found any reviews yet 🙁. You guys are welcome to search for some though.

well the PDF said the 4500 got 55.5 in UGS-04, and the 5500 got 71.8. That's alot faster than the 4500.
