The Quadro4 100 NVS PCI was a professional graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on December 22nd, 2003. Built on the 150 nm process, and based on the NV17 graphics processor, the card supports DirectX 7.0. Since Quadro4 100 NVS PCI does not support DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, it might not be able to run all the latest games. The NV17 graphics processor is a relatively small chip with a die area of only 65 mm² and 29 million transistors. It features 2 pixel shaders and 0 vertex shaders, 4 texture mapping units, and 2 ROPs. Due to the lack of unified shaders you will not be able to run recent games at all (which require unified shader/DX10+ support). NVIDIA has paired 64 MB DDR memory with the Quadro4 100 NVS PCI, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 250 MHz, memory is running at 166 MHz.
Being a single-slot card, the NVIDIA Quadro4 100 NVS PCI does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is rated at 10 W maximum. Display outputs include: 1x DVI, 1x VGA, 1x S-Video. Quadro4 100 NVS PCI is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI interface. The card measures 168 mm in length, and features a single-slot cooling solution.
