Professional Land Surveyor News: NVIDIA Quadro Lets AutoCAD 2011 Designers Achieve Maximum Productivity.
NVIDIA has announced improved workflows for AutoCAD 2011 designers using NVIDIA® Quadro® certified graphics processing units (GPUs). NVIDIA promises visual accuracy, fast 3D performance and high reliability with their Quadro professional graphics solutions.
About NVIDIA and Autodesk
NVIDIA first shook up the computer graphics industry in 1999 by inventing the GPU. This new visual computing standard provided enhanced interactive graphics on a wide range of devices including tablets, portable media players, notebooks and workstations. NVIDIA’s expertise in programmable GPUs has led to breakthroughs in parallel processing which make supercomputing inexpensive and widely accessible.
Autodesk and NVIDIA are strategic partners collaborating extensively, yearly investing thousands of hours of collective engineering, to certify the Quadro GPUs for AutoCAD. NVIDIA has also invested more than 10 years in application specific optimizations to optimize AutoCAD performance.
With the release of the AutoCAD 2011 line of software by Autodesk, and all of the new features and visual styles designers can implement in 2D plans or 3D models, the NVIDIA professional-class Quadro GPU promises to let designers expand upon the complexity of their designs. The ability to better visualize our designs using the AutoCAD 2011 should bring increases in productivity and eliminating waste as we move closer to BIM.
