NextComputing has announced the availability of NVIDIA Quadro 6000 by PNY professional graphics solutions. By integrating the new NVIDIA graphics processing unit (GPU) into its portable workstations and dense computing rackmount servers, NextComputing empowers customers in markets like remote video production, military simulation and training, and oil and gas data visualization with the computational visualization capabilities of NVIDIA Quadro pro graphics.

The NVIDIA Quadro 6000 by PNY is the latest of NVIDIA’s professional-class GPUs, built on the NVIDIA Fermi architecture. Featuring a total of 448 NVIDIA CUDA processing cores and a 6GB frame buffer with GDDR5 ECC RAM, the Quadro 6000 is rated at 1.3 billion triangles per second in raw performance.

NextComputing's high-performance portable systems combine workstation-class performance with laptop-like mobility for users who need to run demanding applications in the field. Systems like the Radius can house a fast Intel Core i7 processor, up to 24GB RAM, multiple hard drives with RAID, and the NVIDIA Quadro 6000. The NextDimension series and Vigor series portables add even more computing power with dual enterprise-class Intel Xeon processors, up to 48GB RAM, and further storage and PCI expansion capability, in both commercial and military rugged form-factors.
