About NVIDIA
Remove the boundaries to richer graphics with Microsoft® RemoteFX™ and NVIDIA GRID™ K1 and K2 GPUs. IT administrators can now easily and securely manage application and system resources while providing expanded access to a fully virtualized desktop environment.
Microsoft RemoteFX enables a better media experience for Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) never before possible in a virtualized environment. NVIDIA GRID powers rich media applications from the server—instead of the end-point device—providing users with enhanced graphics without having to upgrade to a higher class of device.
Clients that have traditionally been used in standard VDI situations can now immediately take advantage of a much richer experience. From Silverlight and Flash videos to the full Windows Aero look and feel, RemoteFX with GRID enables a true hardware-accelerated graphics experience.
Today's organizations are facing the increased adoption of video conferencing tools and rich-media content needed for everything from training to company meetings. This has led to users pushing back on the movement towards a VDI infrastructure for fear of losing the interactivity of a local system. GRID acceleration and advanced RemoteFX codecs address this challenge, making the transition to VDI a much more seamless experience for the user. Even multi-monitor configurations are supported.
Plus, RemoteFX and GRID enable multiple virtual desktops to share a single GPU on a Hyper-V server, saving the significant cost of deploying a graphics card to every user.
Run NVIDIA K1 and K2 on RemoteFX to deliver improved graphics performance anywhere, on demand.
Leading server OEMs—including Dell, HP, and IBM—are all supporting Microsoft RemoteFX capable platforms with GRID technology. Together, we're offering companies enterprise-class software and hardware reliability combined with NVIDIA GPU performance. This combination provides employees a much better user experience that can reduce costs and help increase productivity.
