| This card was marked as valid for HP equipment only, which is not stated on the Web site. The cards have worked fine in my Dell machines. They were easy to install and my users who have just switched to dual monitors absolutely love them. Very good deal for the price. |

| This kind of graphic card can potentially save corporations hundreds of thousands of dollars of vision care insurance claims.
In a business productivity environment, this card is a winner delivering excellent display quality, that reduces eye fatigue.
HP even bundles at no additional cost the dual head DMS 59 to DVI connector.
The ROM BIOS of this graphic card has already been updated to the latest version.
The only other graphic cards that can match the display quality of Quadro NVS cards are possibly Matrox cards that sell at a substantially higher price. Anyone that sits at a desk entering data in Excel spreadsheets for the better part of their work day, will love this card given that screen fonts will appear much crisper and well defined.

| I got a few of these when Tiger was unloading them at 37 bucks. Built several trading terminals with Mach Speed with MS945G MB, Corsair Twinx 5400 DDR2 and C2D 4500's CPUs. The NVS 285 runs perfectly with the Nvidia drivers (I ignored the included CD). Trading may seem like a game but certainly doesn't need ''gaming'' video. Charts and assorted windows run just fine with no blips. One box I built even has the NVS card in the PCIe 16 slot with a PNY FX5200 PCI duo card in a PCI slot..running 4 monitors (2 DVI and 2 VGA) flawlessly. The one Nvidia driver handles it all. They will have to pry my copy of Windows 2000 prof. out of my cold dead hands and it resides on the kits I built. Both cards are heat sink cooled and helps the box remain silent. So far so good. My sympathies to anyone buying this card for anything more elaborate than business needs. |

What You Should Know

DVI: Digital Visual Interface! What
Is It?
The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) is a
video interface standard designed to maximize the visual quality of digital
display devices such as flat panel LCD computer displays and digital
projectors. It was developed by an industry consortium, the Digital Display
Working Group (DDWG). It is designed for carrying uncompressed digital video
data to a compatible monitor or projector, and is partially compatible with
the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) standard in digital mode (DVI-D).
DVI represents a major improvement in image quality over the older VGA
standard.
The DVI interface uses a digital protocol
in which the desired illumination of pixels is transmitted as binary data.
When the display is driven at its native resolution, it will read each
number and apply that brightness to the appropriate pixel. In this way, each
pixel in the output buffer of the source device corresponds directly to one
pixel in the display device, whereas with an analog signal the appearance of
each pixel may be affected by its adjacent pixels as well as by electrical
noise and other forms of analog distortion.
Previous standards such as the analog VGA were designed for CRT-based
devices and thus did not use discrete time display addressing. As the analog
source transmits each horizontal line of the image, it varies its output
voltage to represent the desired brightness. In a CRT device, this is used
to vary the intensity of the scanning beam as it moves across the screen.
The two types of DVI interfaces are Single
Link and Dual Link. Following are the features and benefits of each:
Single Link - The Single Link interface is limited to a maximum pixel
clock of 165 Hz. It uses four (4) twisted pairs of wires (one each of Red,
Green, Blue and Clock). Maximum resolution is 1920 x 1200 at 60Hz.
Dual Link - The Dual Link interface is most common for today’s modern
LCD monitors. It provides three times as many pixels as the Single Link
interface. And its maximum clock may exceed 165 Hz. Dual Link uses six (6)
twisted pairs wires with two (2) each for Red, Green, and Blue, as well as
on pair for Clock. Dual Link’s maximum resolution is 2560 x 1600 at 60Hz.
When you use the Dual Link Interface you can use a longer cable because of
its higher bandwidth. Dual Link also provides HDCP support, which is
required for Blu-Ray playback. |

Dual Monitor
Technology
Few PC users have ever experienced the huge productivity boost that comes
from using multiple monitors on the same PC. Ironically, many of
today's PC have the capability already installed, and Windows (since 2000)
natively supports dual monitors. Configuring dual monitors is so easy: just use
the second video port (if there are two separate ports installed), or add a
second video card or better yet, a video card that has dual DVI ports.
Then plug in your second monitor, change a couple of simple Windows settings,
and you have double the Windows Desktop. This lets you have your
spreadsheet and email visible at the same time, or PowerPoint and Photoshop.
The combinations are endless. And since most of the overhead is
handled by the video card, there is little significant impact (if any) on
system performance. Dual Monitors is one of the simplest, yet most
amazing productivity boosters you can add to your PC! Optionally, you can use a dual monitor stand and recover your workspace in the process!

Will Your
Motherboard Support the Video Card You're Purchasing? Here's the Answer...
Before you
buy - make sure your motherboard is compatible with this video card. For
example, PCI Express video cards won't work with motherboards designed
only for AGP or PCI video cards, and vice versa. Please read the specifications
carefully or call us for expert advice.
Close-Up:
PCI, AGP, and PCI-E (PCI Express)
Check
your motherboard and make sure you are purchasing the correct cardbus
type.
There are 3 types of cardbus slots currently available:
PCI, AGP, and PCI Express (PCIe 2.0 is compatible with PCIe slot)
PCI
- The most widely used I/O bus, it provides a shared data path between
the CPU and peripheral controllers, such as network, display, SCSI and
RAID cards. Though limited in terms of performance, they are considered
the best value when you upgrade your video capabilities on a PC. The PCI
interface can be found and used in nearly any motherboard.

AGP
- The AGP slot is next in line of higher graphic performance. It was designed
especially for the throughput demands of 3-D graphics. It offers up to
8x improvement over a PCI card, is 32 bits wide and runs at 66 MHz. It
provides a direct connection between the card and memory, and only one
AGP slot is on the motherboard. The motherboard must be equipped with
an AGP bus slot for an AGP card to be compatible.(AGP 1x provided a data
transfer rate of 264 Mbytes/sec. AGP 2x is 528 Mbytes/sec. AGP 4x is 1
Gbyte/sec. AGP 8x is 2 Gbytes/sec.)

here to view our selection of AGP Cards
PCI
Express - PCI Express is the newest technology that
is superior to both PCI and AGP, in terms of graphic performance. It offers
performance as much as 4x faster than the fastest AGP 8X slot. PCI Express
connections can support fast data transfer rates, which can be used to
connect high-speed devices such as high-end video cards. The slots come
in different variations and speeds, such as x1, x4, x8, and x16. Presently,
most high-end motherboards meant for design, video production, or gaming
come with PCI express slots. To use a PCI Express card, your computer
must have at least one available PCI Express slot.
