From East to West, NVIDIA Quadro CX makes a huge impact

Since its October 15th launch, at HD World in New York, the NVIDIA® Quadro® CX has received rave reviews from Adobe CS4 users at industry events across the country.

At tradeshows such as HD World, HD Expo and Adobe Max 2008, industry professionals were amazed to see the speed with which stunning visual effects were achieved with Adobe® Premiere® Pro CS4 and After Effects® CS4 using the GPU-acceleration capabilities of the Quadro® CX.
