ModViz Announces Support for NVIDIA Quadro Plex VCS

ModViz has announced today that its Virtual Graphics Platform now supports the new NVIDIA Quadro Plex, the world's first dedicated visual computing system (VCS). A significant step forward for 3D graphics technology, the ModViz VGP software solution combined with the NVIDIA Quadro Plex VCS delivers to professional 3D visualization users and application developers a robust multi-GPU graphics sub-system for optimal graphics performance and maximum 3D data throughput.

By delivering an order-of-magnitude increase in levels of productivity and capability for advanced visualization, Quadro Plex offers advanced scalable visual computing in a desktop or 3U rackmount configuration for demanding professional applications powering multiple streams of 4K HD, styling and design, scientific and medical visualization, oil and gas exploration, and visual simulation and training.

Sharing a common goal with the NVIDIA Quadro Plex VCS, ModViz's VGP optimizes graphics performance and improves 3D data throughput by using multiple central processing unit (CPU) cores to transparently divide and distribute rendering tasks over multiple GPUs. Designed as an OpenGL-based computing platform, VGP delivers supercomputing level visualization with extreme data size and scalability on multi-GPU systems. With VGP on an NVIDIA Quadro Plex, graphics application developers will be able to access immense graphics power without the need to rewrite their code. 3D visualization users will be able to improve their applications' graphics performance and workflow in a scalable fashion.
