Introduction

Video-PX6200TC series video accelerators are based on nVIDIA GeForce™ 6200 core technology. The Video-PX6200TC series feature the TurboCache technology.
The revolutionary TurboCache technology utilizes the additional bandwidth of the PCI Express graphics bus to reach higher levels of graphics performance than traditional video memory solutions, delivering the performance and features you expect from NVIDIA graphics hardware. By allowing the graphics processing unit (GPU) to share the capacity and bandwidth of dedicated video memory and dynamically available system memory, TurboCache turbocharges performance and provides larger total graphics memory for entry-level PCs.
Video-PX6200TC series also feature NVIDIA UltraShadow II technology designed to enhance the performance of shadow-intensive games. Video-PX6200TC series are the industry’s first and only GPUs to feature unique support for Microsoft DirectX 9.0 Shader Model 3.0.
Powered by the proven NVIDIA CineFX 3.0 engine, these advanced GPUs enable unlimited programmability and infinite program length, allowing develops to create new class of advanced visuals and effects. In addition, features such as displacement mapping enable the creation

of unique 3D characters and objects, allowing develops to alter a 3D models appearance on an individual vertex basis. Through this technique, developers can create ultra realistic models that fully interact with the unique lighting of a particular environment. In addition, through Shader Model 3.0 and the advanced CineFX 3.0 engine, game develops can create complex lifelike effects like skin, hair and shadows that fool the eye of even the most discriminating game enthusiast.
Video-PX6200TC series deliver unmatched video features and functionality through the industry’s first on-chip video processor. This dedicated unit on the GPU handles the lion’s share of the video processing load, freeing up the CPU for other tasks. The video processor delivers MPEG support for encoding and decoding of both analog and digital video content, as well as high quality video scaling and filtering for impeccable playback quality at any widow size. An integrated TV encoder allows you to connect your PC to TV for direct to TV playback and advanced adaptive de-interlacing technology provides smooth playback on progressive displays.
Built on the foundation of the industry-renowned NVIDIA Unified Driver Architecture (UDA), Video-PX6200TC series deliver unmatched compatibility with the widest range of games and applications for the ultimate “install and play” experience. Equip yourself with a Video­PX6200TC series GPU so you can play your games the way it’s meant to be played.

CineFX 3.0 Engine
The third-generation of the NVIDIA® CineFX™ engine unleashes the power of the latest NVIDIA GPUs and streamlines the creation of complex visual effects. Through the power of the Microsoft® DirectX®
9.0 Shader Model 3.0 and OpenGL® 1.5 APIs, programmers can now develop shader programs utilizing these technologies and techniques:
Infinite length shader programs: With CineFX 3.0 there are no hardware-imposed limitations on shader programs. The technology and speed advancements of CineFX 3.0 ensure that longer programs will run blazingly fast. Dynamic flow control: Additional looping/branching options and new subroutine call/return functions give programmers even more choices for writing efficient shader programs. Displacement mapping: CineFX 3.0 allows vertex processing with textures, providing a new level of depth and realism to every component, surface, and character in a scene. Displacement mapping allows developers to make subtle changes in a model’s geometry with very little computational cost. Vertex frequency stream divider: Effects can be efficiently applied to multiple characters or objects in a scene, providing individuality where models are otherwise identical. Multiple Render Target (MRT) technology: MRTs allow for deferred shading, a technique where the lighting of a scene can be done after rendering all of the geometry, eliminating multiple passes through the scene. Photorealistic lighting can be created while avoiding unnecessary processing time for pixels that do not contribute to the visible portions of an image.
With the increased horsepower provided by the CineFX 3.0 engine, developers can create more unique game features and effects than ever before. New effects include subsurface scattering, providing depth and realistic translucence to skin and other surfaces; soft shadows for sophisticated lighting effects; accurately represented environmental and ground shadows; and global illumination for incredibly photorealistic lighting. All of these effects can be combined to create intricate, detailed, true-to-life scenes that completely immerse you in the game environment.

NVIDIA CineFX 3.0 is poised to unleash a new level of programming creativity. With full DirectX 9.0 Shader Model 3.0 support, the newest Video-PX6200TC series will soon power a new generation of games with unmatched realism, digital worlds with mind-blowing complexity, and lifelike characters that move through cinematic-quality environments.
Intellisample Technology The industry’s fastest antialiasing delivers ultra-realistic visuals, with no jagged edges, at lightning-fast speeds. Visual quality is taken to new heights through a new rotated grid sampling pattern.
UltraShadow II Technology
Video-PX6200TC series of GPUs delivers the patent-pending NVIDIA® UltraShadow™ II technology, which can be applied to today’s games to build stunning visual effects and to create distinctive digital environments. With a system powered by a Video-PX6200TC series GPU, anytime a game or application calculates shadows, UltraShadow II will enhance the overall performance. With UltraShadow II hardware, the more passes that are required for the lighting and shadow calculations in a scene, the more significant the performance improvement, with the most complex scenes achieving the most noticeable results. Thus, emerging next-generation games, that employ multiple light sources with many visible objects in each scene—such as Doom III from id Software—will see dramatic improvements in execution speeds. The technology advancements in UltraShadow II also deliver a 4× performance increase (compared to the previous generation) for passes involving shadow volumes.
NVIDIA UltraShadow II gives developers the ability to calculate shadows much more quickly by eliminating unnecessary areas from consideration. By defining a bounded portion of a scene (called “depth bounds”), and focusing calculations only on the area most affected by the light source, developers can greatly accelerate the shadow generation process. With the ability to fine-tune shadows within critical regions, developers create incredible visualizations that mimic reality, and still achieve awesome performance for fast-action games. UltraShadow II also works perfectly with NVIDIA® Intellisample 3.0 technology to ensure that shadow edges are properly antialiased.
