NVIDIA Quadro FX 600 PCI: specs and benchmarks
Contents
Summary
NVIDIA started Quadro FX 600 PCI sales 17 March 2004. This is a Rankine architecture desktop card based on 150 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at designers. 128 MB of DDR memory clocked at 0.24 GHz are supplied, and together with 128 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 7.68 GB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is a single-slot graphics card attached via PCI interface.
