The Quadro FX 4400G was an enthusiast-class professional graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on July 28th, 2005. Built on the 130 nm process, and based on the NV45 graphics processor, in its NV45 GL variant, the card supports DirectX 9.0c. Since Quadro FX 4400G does not support DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, it might not be able to run all the latest games. The NV45 graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 287 mm² and 222 million transistors. It features 16 pixel shaders and 6 vertex shaders, 16 texture mapping units, and 16 ROPs. Due to the lack of unified shaders you will not be able to run recent games at all (which require unified shader/DX10+ support). NVIDIA has paired 512 MB GDDR3 memory with the Quadro FX 4400G, which are connected using a 256-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 375 MHz, memory is running at 525 MHz.
Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA Quadro FX 4400G draws power from 1x 6-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 83 W maximum. Display outputs include: 2x DVI, 1x S-Video. Quadro FX 4400G is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 1.0 x16 interface. Its price at launch was 2999 US Dollars.
