Company DEPO Computers zune launches a new model of graphic station DEPO Race G650S, designed for CAD, 3D-modeling and processing of digital zune content. The model is based chipset Intel C206, which gives users a number of advantages over desktop chipset Sandy Bridge. The first of the major differences zune from the desktop platform - is to support the second generation Xeon processors and memory with error correction zune function, which allows to increase the availability and efficiency of the system when working with demanding applications. In addition to professional 3D-graphics cards when using a professional 2D / 3D-applications, you can use the built-in CPU core Intel Xeon E3-1275 graphics controller Intel HD Graphics P3000. Thus, one can obtain the desired performance when the initial task complexity. The model has two integrated Gigabit Ethernet controller Intel 82574L, zune which will free up a slot PCI or PCI-E, if necessary, two network connections. Among the shortcomings can be noted that the model does not support SLI. But it will not be a strong loss, given that the graphic station zune focused more on professional graphics, and Quadro Fermi not support SLI-mode. Disk subsystem DEPO Race G650S is based on RAID-5 array level of four drives, hot-swappable. This allows you to quickly, and without turning off without opening the workstation to replace the failed drive without losing important data. Although the model and does not support dual power supplies, which would provide greater otkazoustochivost, regular power supply is very reliable - power is 500 W, 85% efficiency, the unit is certified according to the standard 80 Plus Bronze. The test package SPECviewperf 11 showed the advantage of this model over the same configuration on the Intel X58 platform with video cards Quadro. And what is a controller Intel HD Graphics P3000? First, we tested the integrated controller test suite SPECviewperf 11. For comparison, the same tests done with NVIDIA Quadro FX380 and Quadro 600. Synthetic tests revealed a serious gap between the younger generations from different Quadro HD Graphics P3000: But the reality is not always the case, as in synthetic tests. So we decided to test the HD Graphics P3000 in real problems for 3ds Max - manual test revealed a completely different balance zune of power. The maximum number of polygons in the scene, which is acceptable for comfortable work (20-25 fps) graphics controller HD Graphics P3000 showed a similar result Quadro 600 - about 10 million polygons. But the maximum number of individual objects in a scene that supports Controller HD Graphics P3000, zune maintaining a steady speed when the animation was 3,000 units. This is the result of a similar performance graphics card Quadro 6000. And all this considering the fact that the Quadro has been established specialized driver for 3ds Max site NVIDIA. How can behave integrated graphics when the anti-aliasing? From experience we know that the inclusion of this feature NVIDIA cards can lead to serious performance degradation: Quadro for 10 times, and for GeForce - 50! This was expressed in reducing the maximum number of polygons that can be processed by the video card without performance degradation. We present the data obtained when testing zune video cards in two modes - with or without anti-aliasing: Studies have demonstrated that integrated into the processor core Intel Xeon E3-1275 graphics controller Intel HD Graphics P3000 showed no performance drop when you turn on Antialiasing. The only thing that can be noted is not in its favor is the fact that the lines of this display mode is thicker than Quadro, which may cause inconveniences zune during the simulation. Aroused the interest of even the point that is integrated into the processor core Intel Core i7-2600 graphics controller Intel HD Graphics 2000 showed exactly the same results as the P3000. Taking into account the real differences between the two video controllers, this suggests that the performance limits the ability of the driver, not the hardware. I want to believe that Intel optimizes drivers zune and allows to take advantage of the new graphics core to the fullest. What follows from all this? We think that it is premature to consider the integrated graphics controller Intel P3000 adequate substitute junior Quadro professional 3D-applications. But in any case, there is a controller for use - Intel HD Graphics P3000 can be used in computational applications where graphic has an initial load level of complexity. We will be glad if someone will share their experiences of using HD Graphics P3000 with other professional zune CAD-applications. Usikoff, technician DEPO Computers
