GRAPHICS CARD maker NVidia has just released an array of Quadro FX graphics cards for high-performance 64-bit Sun Ultra 40 workstations.

Sun Ultra 40s are used in film and broadcast, digital content creation, oil and gas, geosciences, mechanical computer-aided design (CAD) and medical imaging industries. Nvidia thinks that Sun Ultra users will be falling over themselves to install the cards, particularly for mission-critical applications in the CAD, DCC and Visualisation industries.

The cards include the NVidia Quadro FX 5500 which has 1GB DDR2, two dual-link DVI-I connectors and a stereo connector. It comes with SLI technology, SDI and is G-Sync capable.

There is the NVidia Quadro FX 3500 which has a 256MB GDDR3 frame buffer, two dual-link DVI connectors, a stereo connector and 42.2MB/s memory bandwidth. The NVidia Quadro FX 1500 has two dual-link DVI connectors, 256MB GDDR3 frame buffer memory and HD video output and the NVidia Quadro FX 560 has dual-DVI connectors with 128MB of graphics memory.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
