PNY NVIDIA Quadro RTX 4000 - The World’S First Ray Tracing GPU

Delivered 2 weeks sooner than the original delivery date. The RTX 4000 work amazingly so far, see drastic improvement in compare to using my laptop, especially with Lumion and VRay.

It shines in many CAD applications where GTX fails to impress. Renderings in KeyShot 9 and live view update are blazing fast. An entry level RTX card but outshines many desktops GPU’s in engineering tools.

I now own both the Quadro P4000 and Quadro RTX 4000 – so, I’ll try to help with your Professional decision making. Gamers should refer to Geforce RTX & GTX reviews: From research and what I have experienced personally – Quadro leans heavily towards OpenGL stability and accuracy – especially, when matched with ECC memory and multi-core CPUs (greater than 4 cores IMO). The exception is single-core performance when modeling (CPU architecture – which I favor Intel in this category). The RTX 4000 is unique – because it unlocks FP16 performance normally reserved for Gaming cards (hmmm..). And, every program I have based on Direct 3D performance is on steroids now. **UPDATE: My favorite programs (SolidWorks 2019, **Solid Edge 2020, Adobe Premiere/Photoshop,** Keyshot 9, Blender) – all love this new RTX 4000 card (in one form or another): >SolidWorks 2019 (heavy on OpenGL and some D3D) – the performance increase is ridiculous (thank you Dassault) – especially viewport performance, animation, and rendering. Go bigger than the 4000 – if you need scientific data / accuracy. Dassault is paying attention (IMO) >** Solid Edge 2020 (OpenGL with acceptance to D3D) – is stable and functional – WELL DONE SIEMENS - the newest version is a treasure (Simulation & Generative design are incredible). RTX 4000 and P4000 are both good choices >** Keyshot 9 Render (Holy God!!!) – I have to change this review - because the new Keyshot 9 is amazing with GPU / CPU rendering that will blow your socks off. The RTX 4000 is a beast at GPU rendering (Thank You Keyshot Team) >Blender (Direct 3D heavy) – models are much more fluent, viewports load and manipulate better, Mesh conversions and animations are incredible (thanks to FP16 performance gains). A lot easier to work between Parametric (files with high triangles) and Polygonal (files with low triangles) with the RTX >**Adobe (Everything You Got) – A lot more support for RTX since my last review. Adobe will not be silenced in this revolution. The RTX 4000 is a strong performer with Adobe products. OpenGL (professionals): is used extensively in the fields of computer-aided design (CAD), virtual reality, scientific visualization, information visualization, flight simulation, and video games. [Wikipedia] Direct3D (gamers & professionals now): is a graphics application programming interface (API) for Microsoft Windows. Part of DirectX, Direct3D is used to render three-dimensional graphics in applications where performance is important, such as games. [Wikipedia] Please do your research – and, I hope this helps the newbies looking for the Quadro experience

Sehr Gut

Once set up works really well and at a good price. The original install included a black screen for quite a while, then several reboots from an unfinished boot and finally after a long time it finished the install and has worked well since quickly booting up. It took so much time the first time to boot I almost returned it.
