• New display engine that can drive up to four displays simultaneously
• 4 GB graphics memory that provides faster interactivity when using design and content creation applications
• Based on NVIDIA Kepler architecture, which enables the Quadro K5000 GPU for Mac to run key content creation applications up to 2x faster at lower power than the Fermi-based Quadro 4000 for Mac
• Support for up to two Quadro K5000 GPUs for Mac in a single Mac Pro
• Support for OpenGL, OpenCL and NVIDIA CUDA
