The GK104 graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 294 mm² and 3,540 million transistors. It features 1536 shading units, 128 texture mapping units and 32 ROPs. NVIDIA has placed 4,096 MB GDDR5 memory on the card, which are connected using a 256-bit memory interface.

The GPU is operating at a frequency of 706 MHz, memory is running at 1350 MHz. Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA Quadro K5000 Mac Edition draws power from 1x 6-pin power connectors, with power draw rated at 122 W maximum. Display outputs include: 2x DVI, 2x DisplayPort. Quadro K5000 Mac Edition is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface. The card measures 267 mm in length, and features a dual-slot cooling solution.

Targus hub drivers for mac. Apple, but Nvidia is stepping up to the plate and gearing up to release Quadro K5000 graphic card for Apple's workstation. The announcement was made at the IBC 2012 trade show in Amsterdam earlier this week and it is the company's first Quadro card for the Mac Pro since the, released November 2010. The Quadro 5000 offers a number of important architectural changes compared to the earlier hardware, including an increase in per-clock throughput of key graphics operations, a 4GB frame buffer capable of displaying complex models and scenes, and dramatically improved power efficiencies.

Nvidia has based the Quadro 5000 highly successful Kepler architecture, and it described as 'the most powerful professional-class GPU ever for the Macintosh'. That's not saying much given that the Mac Pro ships with an aging AMD Radeon HD 5770 with only 1GB of GDDR5 RAM, AMD's FirePro line of workstation GPUs don't support the Mac, and Nvidia hasn't released a Quadro card for the Mac for nearly two years. The Quadro K5000 comes with 4K quad-display support and fully supports the next-generation DisplayPort 1.2 standard. It supports 3840 x 2160 with a refresh rate of 60Hz and 4096 x 2160 up to 48Hz. The Quadro K5000 also ships with 4GB of GDDR5 RAM, and offers support for OpenGL, OpenCL, and Nvidia's CUDA architecture that can be leveraged to accelerate intensive tasks such as video effects and rendering.
