NVIDIA Quadro FX 5500G 1GB PCIe Specifications: Film and video pre- and post-production professionals can easily integrate the most powerful and programmable professional graphics engine available, the NVIDIA Quadro FX 5500 by PNY, into production workflows - allowing effects professionals unprecedented creative capabilities while dramatically shortening the time from creative concept to finished production. Scientists and engineers can develop scalable, open standards driven, visualization clusters that can dramatically outperform expensive proprietary solutions at a fraction of their cost.

Frame Lock synchronizes the display channels from multiple workstations, creating a single "virtual display," that can be driven by a multi-system cluster for performance scalability. Genlock (also known as "house sync") allows graphics output to be synchronized to an external source, typically for film and broadcast video applications.

Along with Frame Lock and Genlock functionality the NVIDIA Quadro FX 5500G by PNY features a revolutionary new architecture with 2x the geometry and fill rate and 4x the hardware pixel read-back performance of previous generation products. It supports 1024MB of GDDR2 frame buffer memory, and rotated grid full scene antialiasing (RG FSAA) for increased color accuracy and visual quality of edges and lines without compromising performance. A companion G-Sync Board connects to the FX 5500 and provides a BNC house sync (analog or digital) connector along with two RJ45 Frame Lock sync connectors (using CAT5 straight-through cable).
