It’s easy to enter:

1. Visit: www.pny.com/thefutureisvirtual 
2. Download the Unreal Engine or Photoshop PSD folder containing the specifications file of Vū’s Las Vegas LED Volume
3. Next, get creative, add your design to the file, then submit your work by uploading your image on Gleam

Together, we have partnered to offer an exciting giveaway that includes a mid-tower workstation from Puget Systems, optimized for running motion capture for virtual production with Unreal Engine, and equipped with an NVIDIA RTX A5500 GPU.

BONUS: Vū is contributing passes to four lucky winners to visit one of their four locations (Las Vegas, Nashville, Orlando and Tampa Bay), providing an exclusive opportunity to witness Vū's groundbreaking advancements in Virtual Production with LED Volumes.

Modern NVIDIA^® GPUs play a critical role in advancing research and new technologies at higher education institutions. Researchers working in artificial intelligence, scientific research, and even the fine arts or humanities need access to GPU-accelerated computing resources and AI to power the work required for advanced research and cutting-edge educational programs.

Powered by the latest Ada Lovelace and Ampere architectures, professional graphics boards such as NVIDIA^® RTX™ 6000 Ada Generation and NVIDIA RTX A6000, both available from PNY, are essential components when tackling the most challenging scientific problems across drug discovery, data science, medical imaging, genomics, and other physical and biological sciences. Recent advances in AI even extend the reach of NVIDIA RTX into the humanities, with specializations ranging from film schools to fine arts and literature.

In 2018, the NVIDIA^® RTX™ platform revolutionized professional visual computing with the NVIDIA Turing™ GPU architecture. It combined the power of advanced graphics, computing, and AI to bring real-time ray tracing to reality years before previously thought possible. NVIDIA RTX technology enabled artists, designers, scientists, and researchers to work with photorealistic images in real-time, fundamentally changing the way they work. 

Since the introduction of NVIDIA RTX technology, the world and how people work has changed drastically. Professional workflows need to enable a distributed and remote workforce with the ability to do work from anywhere. Artists are creating higher-resolution, hyper-realistic content with the ever-increasing demand for differentiated and visually compelling content. Designers and engineers are striving to create more complex and efficient designs to meet customer demands in highly supply-constrained environments. Scientists, researchers, and medical professionals are faced with incredible challenges that require the rapid development of solutions on a global scale.

There is still time to enter our Watch2Win contest which offers you the chance to win an NVIDIA^® RTX™ A4500 powered workstation from our partner System76.

It’s easy to enter:

1. Visit WWW.PNY.COM/W2W
2. Watch one of our short and informative videos on NVIDIA RTX solutions
3. Automatically be entered for a chance to win this powerful NVIDIA RTX A4500 powered workstation

Configured with the latest NVIDIA RTX A4500 GPU, and offering real-time ray tracing and AI capabilities, the System76 workstation will handle your most demanding graphics-intensive workflow.

Introduction
The world's data centers are becoming more complex. Organizations need to address increasing demands for scale, cost and flexibility in their infrastructure. This is especially true for hyperscale cloud providers who must support a wide variety of workloads on a single platform.

GPUs are highly flexible compute engines that are rapidly gaining adoption for accelerating a wide variety of applications.
They are designed to perform large numbers of computations in parallel, using the CUDA^® programming model, which focuses on explicit parallelism and locality. As such, GPUs offer very high performance per watt when used for compute-intensive applications.

GPUs also provide significant benefits over CPUs in terms of memory bandwidth and throughput. This means that they can be used effectively even when there is not enough RAM available on the host machine (e.g., due to security concerns). In this way GPUs can help move data closer to your application where it needs it most: within the memory hierarchy of your server stack!

Watch2Win is back, and for the first time we are offering you the chance to win an NVIDIA^® RTX™ A4500 powered workstation from our partner Origin PC.

A common myth about NVIDIA’s professional graphics products is that they are not good at running modern video games. However, that is simply not the case.

Professional NVIDIA^® RTX™ and NVIDIA Quadro graphics cards are used by many game developer studios across the world. Countless amazing artists, designers and game engineers rely on the NVIDIA professional graphics boards to create fantastic characters and gaming worlds. Professional NVIDIA RTX graphics cards implement the same Ampere architecture-based CUDA^® Cores, RT Cores and Tensor Cores found in the GeForce 30 series. Because of these shared architectural components and technologies professional NVIDIA cards are great for running games, so NVIDIA placed a great gaming feature inside the NVIDIA^® RTX Experience™ software tool to help pro graphics card owners to maximize gaming performance with a single click.

About Webinar

NVIDIA^® Omniverse™ Enterprise creates a more harmonious and efficient environment for today’s dynamic teams by connecting them and the 3D apps and tools they use every day. This exciting webinar hosted by PNY and BOXX will highlight Omniverse Enterprise features and benefits, discuss the latest enhancements to this real-time-3D design collaboration and simulation platform for enterprises, BOXX hardware purpose-built to realize the full potential of Omniverse Enterprise, and key NVIDIA Data Center GPUs along with select NVIDIA RTX™ pro graphics boards that Omniverse is based on.

NVIDIA Professional Visualization (ProViz) GPUs, Data Center GPUs, and NVIDIA Networking products are accelerating pipelines in every industry. For example, Ansys Discovery and NVIDIA^® RTX™ GPUs make structural and modal analysis, fluid analysis, and topology optimization available to designers and engineers at the beginning of the product development process; saving time, money, and quickly identifying optimal design choices from myriad possibilities. Although the live webinar has been held the content remains timely, informative, and current. For this reason PNY offers the Ansys (and other) webinars on-demand - providing a convenient way for you to catch up on relevant content or to make it available to colleagues who could also benefit from it.

For each webinar, the PNY Pro team invests hundreds of employee-hours to put together the best content for our partners covering the latest developments in NVIDIA GPUs, Networking Products and Enterprise Software. By collaborating with NVIDIA’s own product experts and individual software vendors such as Ansys, PNY Pro webinars are extremely informative and provide great opportunities to engage directly with NVIDIA and other industry experts.
