Maintaining its high standard and performance, Nvidia announced Quadro P6000 GPU just a week after the unveiling of Titan X. The latest addition of Nvidia ups the ante further while offering 12 teraflops of single-precision performance.
The new GPU was announced at SIGGRAPH in Anaheim, California on Monday. The day also saw Nvidia announcing other software initiatives pitched toward VR professionals including a suite of VR, ray tracing tool and VRWorks 360 which the company claims is capable of HD multi-camera editing as well as video stitching for 360 films.
The new P6000 has been designed on the company's newest Pascal architecture. It is termed as faster than its predecessor by Nvidia in a blog post, with 3,840 cores and 24GB of GDDR5X memory. It supports 432Gbps of memory bandwidth.
Additionally, the new model has four DisplayPort 1.4 slots, supporting resolutions up to 4K at 120Hz and 5K at 60Hz. The GPU has internal pipelines to render faster 3D video.
The P6000 is designed to perform tasks like editing HD videos, adding special effects and also CAD/CAM used by the engineers.
"Often our artists are working with 50GB or higher datasets," Steve May, CTO at PIXAR said. "The ability to visualize scenes of this size interactively gives our artists the ability to make creative decisions more quickly. We're looking forward to testing the limits of Pascal and expect the benefits to our workflows to be huge."
The P6000 is the fastest GPU from Nvidia but at this rate a superior model may be soon to follow.
