Two years ago, the NVIDIA^® RTX^™ platform revolutionized professional visual computing forever. Based on the NVIDIA Turing™ GPU architecture and armed with real-time ray tracing, accelerated AI, and photorealistic VR, it enabled designers and engineers to do their life’s work at a level of quality and performance unlike ever before. But the pace of innovation and the drive to achieve new breakthroughs never ceases. And now, global circumstances have presented a new set of challenges for professionals to create, build, entertain and discover in a world that looks dramatically different than the recent past.

With the introduction of the NVIDIA RTX A6000 desktop GPU, based on the NVIDIA Ampere architecture, NVIDIA has placed a whole new level of performance and capabilities in the hands of demanding professionals. This ensures they are not only ready to tackle the urgent needs of today, but are superbly equipped to meet the rapidly evolving, intensive demands of tomorrow.

The annual Interservice Industry Training, Simulation and Education Conference (IITSEC), the world’s largest modeling, simulation and training event has gone virtual. If you are attending vIITSEC 2020 scheduled for November 30 to December 4, we invite you to meet with PNY and HTC to discuss the unique HTC VIVE Pro Secure, professional-grade VR designed for classified and secure environments that require Authority to Operate. VIVE Pro Secure features top-tier graphics, premium audio, and Steam VR room-scale tracking – and this VR HMD can go where others cannot. It’s a secure setup for serious results and PNY is HTC’s exclusive VIVE Pro Secure partner across North America.

PNY recently caught up with Clinton Jones, a director, photographer and visual effects artist, as well as the Judge in PNY's latest contest, to get his feedback on his transition from using a consumer graphics card to the professional NVIDIA^® Quadro^® RTX™ 6000.  

What is your experience working with the NVIDIA Quadro RTX™ 6000 so far?

"It’s been incredible. The 24GBs of Vram and its RTX capability has sped up my workflow by a considerable amount. I can create much larger 3D scenes, navigate them smoothly, and render a lot faster."

SOLIDWORKS is a computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided engineering (CAE) application from Dassault Systèmes. This highly versatile and capable software lets designers quickly sketch out ideas, experiment with different features, and produce models or detailed engineering drawings.

In SOLIDWORKS 2019, Dassault Systèmes introduced an experimental feature that offloads additional rendering operations from the CPU to powerful NVIDIA^® GPUs. It’s called “Enhanced graphics performance” under the “Performance” sub-menu. By leveraging NVIDIA Quadro’s Open GL 4.5 hardware acceleration, this setting adds significant improvement during pan, zoom and rotate in the part or assembly environment. The performance scales up with higher end graphics cards, so it is ideally suited to High-end and beyond NVIDIA Quadro^® RTX^™ and NVIDIA RTX professional graphics products.

Adobe embraced NVIDIA^® Quadro^® GPU acceleration with their Mercury Playback Engine in 2010. Essentially, Adobe redesigned their entire video rendering and playback engine to harness the NVIDIA CUDA parallel processing architecture. The result was a fluid, real-time editing experience for adding additional effects, multiple layers, or ultra-high-resolution content. Now, ten years later, Adobe continues to enhance GPU accelerated features across Adobe Creative Cloud and other essential Adobe applications, and they are committed to bringing RTX™ technology and AI to their vast and vibrant user community, all while leveraging NVIDIA RTX technology.
