  Up to 64X FSAA for dramatically reducing visual aliasing artifacts or "jaggies," resulting in unparalleled image quality and highly realistic scenes.
• GPU Tessellation with Shader Model 5.0
  Quadro Tessellation Engines automatically generate finely detailed geometry for cinematic quality environments and scenes, without sacrificing performance.
• 16K Texture and Render Processing
  Provides the ability to texture from and render to 16K x 16K surfaces. Beneficial for applications that demand the highest resolution and quality image processing.

• Quad-Display Support
  All-new display engine drives up to four displays simultaneously and fully supports the next generation Display Port 1.2 features. DisplayPort 1.2 supports enhanced color depth, higher refresh rates, and increased resolutions as high as 3840 x 2160 at 60Hz or 4096 x 2160 at 48Hz to enable an expansive workspace and boost productivity.
• 30-Bit Color Fidelity
  (10-Bits per red, green, and blue). Enables billions of color variations for rich, vivid image quality with the broadest dynamic range.
• Professional 3D Stereo Synchronization
  Enables robust control of stereo effect through a dedicated three-pin mini-din connection to directly synchronize 3D stereo hardware to Quadro graphics card.

• NVIDIA® CUDA® Parallel Computing Architecture
  Quadro solutions leverage general-purpose GPU computing using standard programming languages like C/C++ and Fortran, and emerging APIs such as OpenCL and Direct Compute. This broad adoption of CUDA accelerates techniques like ray tracing, video and image processing, and computation fluid dynamics.
