Features and Specifications
Video-PX 6600 series 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
4
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, true­to-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-PX 6600 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 NVIDIA's Intellisample 3.0, part of the
Video-PX 6600 series of
GPUs, includes rotated grid antialiasing to deliver the smoothest polygon edges to date at unbelievably fast frame rates. The
Video-PCX 6600 series GPUs also deliver a new 16x anisotropic
filtering mode for the maximum detail on extreme geometry. In addition, Intellisample 3.0 utilizes 64-bit texture filtering and blending, enabling photorealistic lighting and shadow effects. High dynamic-range images are on the cutting edge of computer graphics. With 64-bit texture filtering and blending, users can experience graphics that contain a wider spectrum of bright and low-level lighting conditions and accuracy.
Intellisample high-resolution compression technology (HCT)— supported in the latest Video-PX 6600
series—delivers the next
step in performance and visual quality, compressing color, texture, and z-data. Performance gains can be seen in all applications, especially at high resolutions with antialiasing. This new technology allows for up to a 50-percent increase in compression efficiency in these modes, and delivers unprecedented visual quality for resolutions up to 1600 × 1280.
UltraShadow II Technology
Video-PX 6600 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-PX 6600
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.
6
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.
64-Bit Texture Filtering and Blending
Based on the OpenEXR technology from Industrial Light & Magic, NVIDIA’s 64-bit texture implementation sets new standards for image clarity and quality through floating point capabilities in shading, filtering, texturing and blending. Revolutionary innovations like 64-bit texture filtering and blending allow for higher visual quality and more unique effects by maintaining floating point precision in all aspects of rendering, including shading, texturing, filtering, and blending.
The Industry's First On-Chip Video Processor Video-PX 6600
series GPUs contain a revolutionary
programmable video processor that delivers state-of-the-art, high-quality video features. They provide on-chip acceleration for many functions previously relegated to the CPU or a second chip. A Video-PX 6600
series GPU essentially serves as two
chips in one: a GPU and a video processor. Video processing on the GPU deals with two major uses of video: playback (decoding), and recording analog video and
7
converting it into a defined digital format (encoding). The most common format for encoding or decoding is MPEG-2. Other popular formats, such as Windows Media Video9 (WMV9), are also supported in the Video-PX 6600 series GPUs.
Unified Driver Architecture (UDA) The Nvidia UDA guarantees forward and backward compatibility with software drivers. This simplifies upgrading to a new NVIDIA product because all NVIDIA products work with the same driver software.

Technical Assistance
Q: Why is the display shifted or changed sizes when I switch display modes? Explain and Suggestion:
Some monitors lack auto-sizing features or just do not synchronize properly to the video board output. In some cases, horizontal and vertical display adjustments may be necessary. Use the monitor control panel functions to adjust screen.
In other cases, mode type and refresh rate adjustments may be necessary. Use the utility program, which provided by video card manufacturer or production
20
developer. To center the display with normal type (mode 3), and to reduce (decrease) the refresh rate with the monitor's specification.
Q: What kind monitors can display 800x600 modes or higher resolution mode? Explain and Suggestion:
To display 800x600 resolution at 60Hz refresh rate, the monitor must be capable of synchronizing a 31.5KHz horizontal scan rate (e.g., NEC 2A, 3D). At 72Hz refresh rate, the monitor must be capable of synchronizing a 48.0KHz scan rate (e.g., Sony HG 1304, NEC 4D, 5D, Seiko 1450).
To display 1024x768 interlaced mode; the monitor must be capable of synchronizing a 35.5KHz horizontal scan rate (e.g., NEC 3D, Seiko 1430 or
1440). To display 1024x768 non-interlaced mode at 60Hz, the monitor must be
capable of synchronizing a 48.7KHz scan rate (e.g., Sony HG 1304, NEC 4D, 5D, Seiko 1450).
To display 1024x768 non-interlaced mode at 70Hz, the monitor must be capable of synchronizing a 56.4KHz scan rate (e.g., NEC 4D).
Q: System hangs-up after installing video driver. Explain and Suggestion:
Today, most video drivers are developed for 32-bit processing and may require a channel to Code/Decode. Conflict between device drivers and TSR (terminate­and-stay-resident) programs will inverted the display, and are particularly effectual at crashing computer. The most effective way to check for conflicts is to replace with the original video driver, or delete and re-install the current video driver to the system.
Accomplishing IRQs (Interrupt Request Query) settings or troubleshooting the conflicts on hardware source may necessary. Most AGP video cards designed for Plug-n-Play, that means video card IRQ's setup which controls by main board’s (motherboard) circuitry and BIOS. Physically pulling out other devices from system, and re-starts the computer. Confirm and modify your IRQ addresses with qualified computer technician.
Q: Multiple images or unreadable screen after loading video driver. Explain and Suggestion:
There are a variety of reasons why the display might be distorted. One common reason is a monitor mis-match. Some older multi-frequency monitors are unable to switch video modes without being turned off, then turned on again.
If the problem occurring in windows, make sure that you have loaded that proper video driver, and that the driver is compatible with the monitor being used. Try re­configuring your application software to use a compatible video mode. If problem persist in windows, load the standard generic VGA driver. The generic VGA
21
driver should function properly with virtually every video board and VGA (or SVGA) monitor available.
If that is an unsatisfactory solution, you may have to upgrade to a monitor that supports the desired video mode.
Some new monitors are also synchronizing this problem because built-in DDC (Data-Digital-Channel) feature. Sometime that DDC automatically setup the display frequency without loading video driver. Try to turn it off, or change settings of monitor type in your system.
Q: Selection of color, resolution and refresh rate combination that always backs to default after restart the system.
Explain and Suggestion:
Accordingly, there must be a bug (defected source-code) in video driver, or in the system. Debug the source-code or fix the error in video driver that should be done by the driver developer. Likewise, upgrade the video driver from the manufacturer or from the original software developer is necessary.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Why am I getting "This device can not start (Code 10)"? Answer
Code-10 error often occurs when there no resources assign to this card to function or initialize and or start up. If not too severe of resources problem, enabling IRQ from the mainboard BIOS may resolve this error. Once in the mainboard BIOS, search for "Assign IRQ for VGA" or "Allocate an Interrupt for Video" or similar description. Your select option should be "Yes" or "Enable".
Q7: Which card support DirectX9? Answer
All NVIDIA FX series and later will support DirectX9.
Q2: How do I update my old VGA card to DirectX9? Answer
Only updating to the latest VGA card will support DirectX9. Updating driver for the old VGA card will not make your old VGA card to support DirectX9. Reason is due to hardware on the VGA card.
Q3: What is causing TV display black and white? Answer
Please mouse right click on desktop-click on properties-settings-advanced­GeForce(top tap)-you will see a pop up menu on left hand side-right click on your TV display(normally is your secondary display-click on TV format-click on
22
advanced-under TV format, select S-Video or RCA which you are attached. Then click apply-o.k.
Q4: Why am I getting error when clicking on "Display Driver" from the CD DISC? Answer
Older PC from Gateway / DELL / HP will have this problem due to older equipement which does not have the current information to process. You will manually need to use your Windows Explorer [not Internet Explorer] to navigate to your CD ROM drive. Next, navigate or browse to subfolder. Depending on which CDDISC and product you have, you will need to find a file call setup or setup.exe.
Using 3DForce 4 series CDDISC version 3.20D and assuming your CD ROM drive is "D" [your CDROM drive may differ], you will see 3DApplication, DirectX etc... Look for the folder of your Windows O.S. [Operating System] you trying to install on. The folder should be like Win2KXP or Win9x and or WinNT. Depending on which OS you using, navigate to the folder and look for Setup or Setup.exe. There will be several "Setup" file. This setup file should be either Setup.exe or Application file or have a picture of a PC icon. This type of memory is now capable of running at much higher speeds than Fast Page Mode or EDO DRAM. Also, it is able to execute a small number of frequently executed operations, such as buffer clears, specific to graphics applications, independently of the controller.

Reducing War ranty Claim Rejections
To reduce the potential of incurring damages not covered by Manufacturers warranties, we strongly recommend the following:
Read your manuals before installing peripherals and/or before making changes to the machine’s configuration;
Ask your dealer if there are any known problems with the system requirements or installation procedures for any add-on products that your are purchasing;
Buy industry standard products where compatibility issue are more likely to surface;
31
If you are unsure about installation for a new product, contact your dealer’s service department.
We believe it is important for you to know and understand what your warranty coverage provides and what it does not.
We also want you to be aware that most hardware warranties only relate to the function of the hardware. In most cases, no assurances are given by the manufacturer that the hardware item will work in conjunction with any other hardware item. If a computer product is not working because it is not compatible with another product, or because it has not been properly installed and set-up, the manufacturer does not pay for the service time. To help avoid these inconveniences, contact a professional consultant that one can help you determine the possibility of incompatibility issue before you purchase add-on or accessories.
