NVIDIA Quadro® FX 5600 Graphics Accelerator is based on the industry's first unified architecture designed to dynamically allocate compute, geometry, shading and pixel processing power to deliver optimized GPU performance. Up to two FX 5600 can be installed in the Sun Ultra 40 M2 Workstation to work independently or combined in SLI-mode, to scale graphics performance.
