Housing a Maxwell architecture chip, the PNY Technologies Quadro M4000 Graphics Card is optimized for professional graphics rendering. The Maxwell architecture GPU features 1664 CUDA cores coupled to 8GB of GDDR5 vRAM with a 256-bit memory bus providing a maximum of 2.6 TFLOPS of single-precision computing power. Using supported APIs and CUDA, that computing performance can translate into high resolution and realistic real-time 2D and 3D graphics rendering or improved computing speed with hardware acceleration.
The output panel on this card features four DisplayPort terminals. Up to four monitors can be simultaneously supported by a single card to create high-resolution video walls with your workstation or for more desktop real-estate to increase productivity. Multiple cards can be used together to expand the card's multi-display capabilities. Included with the card is a DisplayPort to Single-Link DVI-D adapter so you can run a DVI display off the card.
For cooling, PNY implemented NVIDIA's blower-style cooler. This cooler uses a radial fan to force air through the card's heatsink and out of the case through the front of the card. This cooling configuration is good for workstation case configurations where space between computer components can be a concern.
