NVIDIA Quadro Graphics Maximizes AutoCAD productivity
Until now, to maintain maximum productivity AutoCAD® design professionals have had to sacrifice their ability to interact with intuitive and realistic 3D designs, relying on wire frame or simplified representations of their models when using a consumer graphics solution. As a result, design decisions are often made based on less precise information.

Now, with AutoCAD 2008/09, designers can leverage the capabilities of NVIDIA® Quadro® professional-class GPUs to incorporate high-quality, 3D models into their work flow. The partnership of NVIDIA® and Autodesk has delivered a certified hardware-software solution that enables designers to create and interact with more complex product designs, achieving maximum productivity without sacrificing visual quality.
