The Quadro FX 5800 was an enthusiast-class professional graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on November 11th, 2008. Built on the 55 nm process, and based on the GT200B graphics processor, the card supports DirectX 11.1. Even though it supports DirectX 11, the feature level is only 10_0, which can be problematic with many DirectX 11 & DirectX 12 titles. The GT200B graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 470 mm² and 1,400 million transistors. It features 240 shading units, 80 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs. NVIDIA has paired 4 GB GDDR3 memory with the Quadro FX 5800, which are connected using a 512-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 610 MHz, memory is running at 800 MHz. Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA Quadro FX 5800 draws power from 1x 6-pin + 1x 8-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 189 W maximum. Display outputs include: 2x DVI, 1x DisplayPort, 1x S-Video. Quadro FX 5800 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface. The card's dimensions are 267 mm x 111 mm x 40 mm, and it features a dual-slot cooling solution. Its price at launch was 3499 US Dollars.

VDPAU: Feature Set A
GT200B, commonly printed on the chip package as G200-xxx-Bx is an optical shrink of the G200 core to the newer 55 manufacturing process of TSMC. It helped shrink the core's energy and thermal footprints to a level that even facilitated building a dual-GPU accelerator
