NVIDIA has quietly updated its professional video cards with the new dual-GPU Quadro FX 4700 X2 PCI-E 2.0. Designed for CAD, DCC, and other visualization applications, the newest Quadro is SLI ready, has 256-bit memory interface, 2GB GDDR3 memory (1GB per GPU), and four dual-link DVI connectors for simultaneous work on up to four high-resolution displays. We only know that the card is powered by two DirectX 10/Shader Model 4.0 capable GPUs, but NVIDIA does not name whether these are G92 or G94 cores. The specifications page only hints at the card's power consumption during load - 226W.

by: malware;752087i think we might be looking at a glance of the 10 series...single pcb dual gpu like that...hmmm very interesting

by: jbunch07;752099Don't count on that. It's probably the 9800 GX2 model in Quadro, with slightly different PCB because of the four DVI connectors.

by: malware;752110good point...but i was really referring to them using a single pcb instead of 2...but who knows for sure...?

by: jbunch07;752116They aren't using a single PCB here, it is still two PCBs.

Looks like a 9800 GX2 using a modified 7950 GX2 PCB design and layout - with longer PCBs and larger coolers. Also interesting that this card won't support 3-way SLI.
by: newtekie1;752278wow i couldn't tell but i see it now thanks for pointing that out

Yup, the card(s)' construction is similar to the 7950 GX2. Expect the GPU below the top PCB to bake well.
I enjoy my GPU's pleasantly browned at 70 degrees celcius.:p
Trust me, they don't smell half appetising. :rolleyes:
So these are based on G92 ?

by: btarunr;753574doesn't say...might be g92 or g94 :confused:

Me sez dis a 1 gpu 1 pcb card on pic. WTF ur talkin about?!?
(maybe i'm looking at a wrong pic, but this is above mentioned)
