PNY has released the Quadro FX 4600, an upgraded version of the FX 4500 workstation-class graphics card. Based on nVidia’s chip of the same name, the FX 4600 offers up to twice the performance of its predecessor in pro-level 3D applications, according to PNY.

The board features an array of 128 parallel 1.35GHz cores, which the board automatically allocates as computational, geometry, shader and pixel cores as needed. This gives it more flexibility than previous graphics cards, as it can match its performance to different types of scenes.
