Beside its numerous GeForce cards, NVIDIA is also known for manufacturing certain specific graphics solutions tailored to the needs of the business environment, and that's exactly the case with the company's latest product, the NVS 300, which has just been officially announced. The NVIDIA NVS 300 Business Graphics Solution has been designed for mission-critical applications and simplifies IT administration, offering versatile display connectivity available in a low-profile, space saving graphics card design. Furthermore, the company mentions the fact that the NVS 300 graphics processor is designed, built and supported to ensure reliable performance and maximum uptime for the most demanding operating environments, ranging from command and control centers, to securities trading floors, to digital signage installations. The graphics solution has been designed to work equally well with LCD, DLP or plasma displays, as well as standard tower PCs, workstations or small form factor systems, supporting VGA, DVI, DisplayPort and HDMI at resolutions as high as 2560x1600. With built-in, new NVIDIA Mosaic technology, and NVIDIA nView Desktop Management Software that support single or multi-display environments, the NVS 300 graphics processor improves user productivity by enabling efficient management of the Windows desktop across multiple displays. NVIDIA Mosaic technology provides seamless taskbar spanning, as well as transparent scaling of any application across up to eight displays, and can be used to enable one or more NVS 300 cards to drive either many independent displays simultaneously, or one ultra-high resolution display. "The NVS 300 is built for demanding enterprises that require high reliability, improved manageability, and tremendous value," said Jeff Brown, general manager, Professional Solutions Group, NVIDIA. "The ability to support legacy and current display types provides an upgrade path without disrupting existing, complex installations," Mr. Brown added. The NVIDIA NVS 300 has a MSRP set at $149 and is available in PCI Express x16 and x1 configurations from major business PC and workstation OEMs, and from authorized distribution partners including PNY Technologies in the Americas and Europe, ELSA in Japan, and Leadtek in Asia Pacific.
