Now available as a public beta, Autodesk Arnold 5.3 gives artists a first look at Autodesk’s Quadro RTX accelerated rendering software. From look development to lighting, RTX-based GPU acceleration brings fluid interactivity and unprecedented speed to rendering workflows, reducing interations and time from inspiration to finished image.

“We’ve worked closely with NVIDIA to optimize Arnold GPU to run on the latest RTX technology, and look forward to continuing to collaborate to bring our customers the highest quality rendering.” Said Chris Vienneau, Senior Director, Media & Entertainment Products, Autodesk.

At PNY PRO we are always excited to see and share the spectacular designs our customers create using NVIDIA graphics boards. To celebrate the launch of the latest RTX GPUs from NVIDIA, we are inviting our talented creators to participate in the new RTX for Creators contest, which offers the chance to win an NVIDIA Quadro GPU. We will share some of the entries received throughout the contest on our web site. To enter the contest or view examples of creations submitted, visit: www.pny.com/creators

PNY PRO is challenging all NVIDIA users to create a visually compelling design using at least one 3D software modeling and rendering application. All participants can upload up to three images/videos of their original work; the images should be at least FHD (1080p) 1920 x 1080 resolution. The RTX Creators Contest will run until June 30, 2019 and the wining entry will receive an NVIDIA Quadro P2000.

As a PC enthusiast, I love pitting hardware solutions against each other to determine their relative performance when completing a particular task.  This process is also known as “Benchmarking.”  Benchmarking results are usually considered the best tool to evaluate the merits of competing systems when making a purchase decision.

In this 3-part blog series, we’ll discuss how to build a system, with an emphasis on benchmarking GPU performance for Deep Learning using Ubuntu 18.04, NVIDIA GPU Cloud (NGC) and TensorFlow.

The Quadro RTX 4000 is already making an impression on the tech community with positive results and projected success. Print and web publications with years of industry involvement such as Develop 3D and Techgage are devoted to providing professionals the technical information they need. They, and others, are committed to their readership and focus on product and workflow enhancements, such as the Quadro RTX 4000, that improve productivity and creativity.

“Compared to previous generations, there’s more than immediately meets the eye with Quadro RTX. The architecture bump from Pascal to Turing in itself represents a big boost in performance (and efficiency), but the addition of Tensor and RT cores helps set RTX apart from the rest of the market." - Rob Williams, Techgage

Excitement and anticipation were everywhere at the NVIDIA GPU Technology Conference (GTC) 2019.  GTC’s speaker roster reads like a who’s who in AI and deep learning.  The expectation was high for NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang to announce new industry-disruptive technologies during his keynote address.  Last year it was the launch of NVIDIA RTX real-time ray tracing technology. This year Jensen took it a step further with the introduction of NVIDIA- RTX-powered Data Science Workstations and expanded NVIDIA RTX Server offerings.

The world is driven by innovation, and NVIDIA remains one of the largest contributors to the evolution of modern technology. With the advent of Industry 4.0, a world of possibilities never before considered becomes reality. Autonomous drones equipped with Deep Learning-enabled GPUs working alongside humans, “aware” of their surroundings. Vast amounts of data interpreted and quickly dissected to reach novel conclusions never before realized or inferred by human analysts that used to take days, months, or even years, saving time and resources, while delivering information vital to information age enterprises. Among these many advancements, the possibilities NVIDIA and Industry 4.0 bring to Product Design will revolutionize the future.

“Turing is NVIDIA’s most important innovation in computer graphics in more than a decade."

— Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA

Launched at SIGGRAPH 2018, NVIDIA’s Turing GPU Architecture features new RT Cores to accelerate ray tracing and Tensor Cores for AI functionality which, together for the first time, make realtime ray tracing possible.

These two additions to the Turing architecture GPU — along with more powerful compute for simulation and enhanced rasterization — usher in a new generation of hybrid rendering to address the $250 billion visual effects industry. Hybrid rendering enables cinematic-quality interactive experiences, amazing new effects powered by RT Cores and AI (Deep Neural Networks) and fluid interactivity on highly complex models or scenes.
