nVIDIA GeForce Go 7900GTX Graphics

nvidia_7900 GTX

Full Microsoft® DirectX® 9.0 Shader Model 3.0 Support
The standard for today's PCs and next-generation consoles enables stunning and complex effects for cinematic realism. NVIDIA® graphics processing units (GPUs) offer the most complete implementation of the Shader Model 3.0 feature set-including vertex texture fetch (VTF)-to ensure top-notch compatibility and performance for all DirectX 9 applications.

Transparency Antialiasing
The industry's first notebook GPU family to support transparency supersampling and multisampling to dramatically improve the quality of objects modeled in alpha-tested textures (typically environmental details like chain link fences, grass, leaves, or other vegetation).


NVIDIA® CineFX® 4.0 Engine

Delivers advanced visual effects at unimaginable speeds. Full support for Microsoft DirectX 9.0 Shader Model 3.0 enables stunning and complex special effects. Next-generation shader architecture with new texture unit design streamlines texture processing for faster and smoother gameplay.

intellisample_4.0NVIDIA® Intellisample™ 4.0 Technology
The industry's fastest antialiasing delivers ultra-realistic visuals, with no jagged edges, at lightning-fast speeds. Visual quality is taken to new heights through a new rotated grid sampling pattern, advanced 128 Tap sample coverage, 16x anisotropic filtering, and support for transparency supersampling and multisampling.

True High Dynamic-Range (HDR) Rendering Support
The ultimate lighting effects bring environments to life for a truly immersive, ultra-reailstic experience. Based on the OpenEXR technology from Industrial Light & Magic (http://www.openexr.com/), NVIDIA's 64-bit texture implementation delivers state-of-the-art high dynamic-range (HDR) visual effects through floating point capabilities in shading, filtering, texturing, and blending.

High-Definition H.264, MPEG-2, and WMV Hardware Acceleration
Smoothly playback H.264, MPEG-2, and WMV video - including WMV HD - with minimal CPU usage so the notebook is free to do other work. Feature requires supported video software. Feature may vary by product.
