wITH NVIDIA

The latest NVIDIA® Quadro® graphics cards provide exceptional performance in all Inventor® 3D CAD software design modes. This means you can easily dial up the complexity of your designs, visualize every angle faster, and work out issues earlier in the design process. With adoption of 4K displays growing and the emerging use of Virtual Reality for design workflows, the increased graphics performance required by these new technologies is leading designers to demand the power and reliability of Quadro GPUs.

Create Fast Photorealistic Renders3ds Max® in the Product Design Collection gives you the power to create stunning photorealistic renderings for client reviews or marketing materials much faster. Because 3ds Max also takes full advantage of your NVIDIA graphics card, your renders can finish a whole lot faster. No more waiting overnight and catching mistakes too late.

With the NVIDIA® Iray® renderer used in 3ds Max you can render more than 12x faster with NVIDIA Multi-GPU technology while continuing to work with all your other software applications. Now Iray Server distributed rendering software is available from NVIDIA to harness the power of networked workstations for even faster rendering. This helps reduce, or in some cases eliminate, the number of expensive and time-consuming physical prototypes needed.
