The Quadro 5000 was an enthusiast-class professional graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on February 23rd, 2011. Built on the 40 nm process, and based on the GF100 graphics processor, in its GF100-850-A3 variant, the card supports DirectX 12. The GF100 graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 529 mm² and 3,100 million transistors. Unlike the fully unlocked GeForce GTX 480 Core 512, which uses the same GPU but has all 512 shaders enabled, NVIDIA has disabled some shading units on the Quadro 5000 to reach the product's target shader count. It features 352 shading units, 44 texture mapping units, and 40 ROPs. NVIDIA has paired 2,560 MB GDDR5 memory with the Quadro 5000, which are connected using a 320-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 513 MHz, memory is running at 750 MHz (3 Gbps effective).
Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA Quadro 5000 draws power from 1x 6-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 152 W maximum. Display outputs include: 1x DVI, 2x DisplayPort. Quadro 5000 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface. The card measures 248 mm in length, 111 mm in width, and features a dual-slot cooling solution. Its price at launch was 2499 US Dollars.

GF100 GPU Notes

PureVideo HD: VP4
VDPAU: Feature Set C

GF100 has 4 GPCs each capable of 8 pixels per clock. This limits complete GPU to 32 pixels per clock and because of that it can't feed all 48 ROPs when they all require data at the same time.
Additional ROPs however can be used for MSAA (because it doesn't require additional data from rasterizers, while giving more work to ROPs.)
