PNY NVIDIA Quadro RTX 4000 - The World’S First Ray Tracing GPU

Product Information

Natively execute standard programming languages like C/C++ and Fortran, and APIs such as OpenCL, OpenACC and Direct Nvidia Quadro RTX is based on Nvidia’s new Turing architecture, which has been designed from the ground up for ray tracing and deep learning, a subset of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Stepping up to the Nvidia RTX A5000 will give you an additional boost. Compared to the Nvidia RTX A4000 it was between 1.27 and 1.37 times faster. Of course, the Nvidia RTX A6000 is complete overkill for most architects or product designers who simply want a capable GPU for real-time visualisation, GPU rendering or VR. And it’s here that the new Nvidia RTX A4000 and Nvidia RTX A5000 come into play. For real time visualisation, the Quadro RTX 4000’s 8GB is probably plenty for most mainstream workflows. However, when it comes to GPU rendering, it can be restrictive. Memory requirements increase with the size the model, the HDR images and the textures, as well as with output resolution.

Like the Nvidia RTX A4000 it offers a significant upgrade in all areas of processing – CUDA, Tensor and RT cores. Assimilate Scratch]: The application may crash due to a kernel exception in the NVIDIA OpenGL driver. Release 510 is the latest Production Branch release of the NVIDIA RTX Enterprise Driver. This new driver provides improvements over the previous branch in the areas of application performance, API interoperability (e.g., OpenCL/Vulkan), and application power management. The performance leap from ‘Turing’ to ‘Ampere’ (Quadro RTX 4000 to RTX A4000) is nothing short of impressive. In real-time 3D, a 45% to 60% boost, generation on generation, seems typical, with even bigger gains from real-time ray tracing when the enhanced RT and Tensor cores come into play. The step up from the four-year old ‘Pascal’ Quadro P4000 is simply phenomenal, especially for GPU rendering.

As we wait for AMD to deliver a Pro version of its ‘Big Navi’ Radeon RX 6000 series GPUs with hardware ray tracing, Nvidia’s biggest competitor in pro graphics is currently itself. To get an idea of what this might be, we first replicated Nvidia’s render test on our own machine, obtained very similar render time, then adjusted the figures slightly.The RTX A4000 and A5000 are mid-range ‘Quadro’ GPUs in everything but name. Nvidia’s long-serving Quadro workstation brand might be being retired, but the features remain the same. New external memory and semaphore sharing extensions provide a generic framework that enables OpenCL to import external memory and semaphore handles to synchronize with the external runtime, coordinating the use of shared memory. GPU rendering is nothing new; we’ve been writing about it in this magazine for ten years now. But 2019 could be the year that it really comes of age. While most of the renderers built into CAD applications still rely on the CPU, there are a growing number of impressive GPU renderers. These include SolidWorks Visualize, V-Ray NEXT GPU, Siemens Lightworks, Lumiscaphe, Catia Live Rendering or any renderer that uses Nvidia Iray. Even Luxion KeyShot, a die hard CPU renderer and one that is particuarly popular with product designers, was recently demonstrated running on Nvidia GPUs. Nvidia Quadro RTX 4000 – SolidWorks Visualize As you can imagine, the higher up the range you go, the more cores you get (CUDA, tensor & RT). All GPUs are rated by FP32 performance, a measure of their single precision compute capabilities (TFLOPs) based on their CUDA cores alone. This figure can be compared directly to previous generation Quadro products.
