Introduction
Video-248PCI-DVI video accelerator is based on nVIDIA GeForceFX
5700LE core technology. The Video-248PCI-DVI video accelerator is an
excellent 2D/3D multimedia video adapters for PCI local bus desktop
PCs’. This video card will provide multiple display outputs onboard for
DVI-I, TV-Out (Analog and Digital), Dual RGB out (Twin) as options.
The nVIDIA GeForceFX5700LE Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) is
0.13µ Micron Process Technology, which delivers high performance
through faster clock rates. CineFX engine produces gaming effects on
par with the hottest motion pictures. Combined with 128-bit studio quality
color processing technology, 3D worlds and characters are more real
than anything is that’s come before. Powered by the CineFX2.0 engine,
the Video-248PCI-DVI shifts the focus from simple pixel fill rate to
sophisticated pixel shading. To maximized programming choice, the
nVIDIA CineFX2.0 engine includes the most complete hardware feature
implementation for both OpenGL and Microsoft DirectX
environments, including total support for the DirectX 9.0-vertex and pixel
shader specification.
Well-developed CineFX2.0 engine features include the support of 1024
instructions in a single rendering pass, allowing for complex effects that
aren’t practical in any other architecture. Complex lighting can
dramatically improve the realism of images, but traditionally adds the
rendering time. With Video-248PCI-DVI all of those gorgeous
enhancements are possible without sacrificing performance.
The Intellisample process uses gamma-adjusted sampling, taking into
account the dramatic physical differences between how your eyes and
monitor perceive light and color, making for much smoother and more
natural edge transitions.
As always, nVIDIA solution incorporate new technology and advances
without compromising the overall stability and quality of the system, and
nVIDIA Unified Driver Architecture (UDA) makes it painless to take
advantage of new capabilities as they are introduced.
A matchless of hardware and software technology combination, the
primary principles of Video-248PCI-DVI video accelerator that will
contribute many of new features and more benefits to your desktop
computing as well as the best-performance integrated, unusual quality
and exceedingly resolution.

Features
UltraShadow Technology
Advanced technology designed to enhance the performance of
bleeding-edge games that use complex shadows
CineFX2.0 Engine
The second-generation CineFX 2.0 engine powers advanced
pixel and vertex shader processing and true 128-bit color
precision. Delivering double the floating-point pixel shader power
of the previous CineFX engine, CineFX 2.0 produces a visible
performance boost through its more efficient execution of pixel
shader programs.
High-Precision Graphics
By combining the incredible dynamic range of today's state-ofthe-art 3D motion pictures with 128-bit studio-precision color, the
GeForce FX GPUs bring you the industry’s best image quality for
the most demanding applications.
Intellisample Technology
The industry’s fastest and highest quality antialiasing delivers
ultra-realistic visuals, with no jagged edges, at lightning-fast
speeds. The 2nd-generation Intellisample HCT, supported in
GeForce 5700LE GPUs, extends performance and quality gains
to higher resolutions and antialiasing levels.
Unified Driver Architecture (UDA)
Part of the NVIDIA Forceware unified software environment
(USE). The NVIDIA UDA guarantees forward and backward
compatibility with software drivers. Simplifies upgrading to a new
NVIDIA product because all NVIDIA products work with the
same driver software.

nView Multi-display Technology
The nView hardware and software technology combination
delivers maximum flexibility for multi-display options, and
provides unprecedented end-user control of the desktop
experience. NVIDIA GPUs are enabled to support multi-displays,
but graphics cards vary. Please verify multi-display support in
the graphics card before purchasing.
Digital Vibrance Control (DVC)
Allows the user to adjust color controls digitally to compensate
for the lighting conditions of their workspace, in order to achieve
accurate, bright colors in all conditions.
Advanced Pixel Shaders
New technology allows floating-point shader operation to run 2x
faster than previous-generation GPUs.
Microsoft® DirectX® 9.0 Optimizations and
Support
Ensures the best performance and application compatibility for
all DirectX 9 applications.
OpenGL® 1.5 Optimizations and Support
Ensures the best performance and application compatibility for
all OpenGL applications.
