Introduction
Video-PCX5750 series video accelerators are nVIDIA GeForce™ PCX5750 core technology based 128MB/256MB DDR memory modules built-in onboard. nVIDIA unveils the GeForce PCX family of graphics processing units (GPUs): the industry’s first top-to-bottom family of PCI Express GPUs.
A PCI express is a new Intel PC bus architecture that doubles the bandwidth of the AGP 8X, delivering over 4GB per second in both upstream and downstream data transfers. The Video PCX GPUs will deliver better graphics and more vibrant digital media to PC consumers through the additional bandwidth and features offered by Intel’s new PCI Express bus architecture. Since the GPU has the largest bandwidth demand of all the PC subsystems.
The nVIDIA® GeForcePCX Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) is
0.13µ Micron Process Technology, which delivers high performance through faster clock rates. CineFX 2.0 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 CineFX 2.0 engine, the Video PCX5750 series shifts the focus from simple pixel fill rate to sophisticated pixel shading. To maximize programming choice, the nVIDIA CineFX 2.0 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 CineFX 2.0 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.
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-PCX5750 series video accelerators that will contribute many of new features and more benefits to your desktop computing as well as the best­performance integrated, unusual quality and exceedingly resolution.

delivers faster and smoother gameplay. The 2nd-generation CineFX 2.0 engine powers more advanced pixel shaders.
Intellisample Technology The industry’s fastest and highest quality antialiasing delivers ultra-realistic visuals, with no jagged edges, at lightning-fast speeds. Extends performance and quality gains to higher resolutions and antialiasing levels.
UltraShadow Technology
Advanced technology designed to enhance the performance of bleeding-edge games that use complex shadows.
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 Video-PCX5750 series bring you the industry’s best image quality for the most demanding applications.
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. Video-PCX series are enabled to support multi­display.
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.
PCI Express Support
PCI Express is a new Intel bus architecture that doubles the
