The cinematic computing revolution continues with the introduction
of the most powerful members of the NVIDIA® GeForce™
FX family - the GeForce FX 5900 graphics processing units
(GPUs). Architected for blazing speeds and delivering unmatched
visual quality, the GeForce FX 5900 GPUs ignite PC gaming.
Powered by the second-generation NVIDIA CineFX™ engine
with the industry's only true 128-bit precision processing
- the GeForce FX 5900 GPUs take cinematic quality special
effects to new levels while providing the industry's most
compatible and reliable gaming platform.
