NVIDIA Kepler-Based Quadro K5000 Adds 4K Support To Mac Pro

As a Mac Pro owner, it's sometimes hard not to feel like Apple has just forgotten its professional desktop user-base all together. Sure, there was a new Mac Pro this year -- but it was hardly a step above the 2010 model. While we wait to see if Apple will revitalize the product line, at least NVIDIA is offering something new.

Today, the company announced the Quadro K5000 GPU for Mac Pro, which NVIDIA calls "the most powerful professional-class GPU ever for the Macintosh." The new card, which includes support for running two K5000 units in one tower, is based on Kepler architecture.

Beyond the obvious speed boost, the Quadro K5000 also adds support for 4K resolution. Coupled with the ability to use four displays, the new unit sounds like a great piece of arsenal for editors and color correction specialists. 

"We're giving Mac Pro users the most powerful professional GPU ever for the Mac, with features and performance that will make a substantial difference in their workflows and allow them to create digital content at speeds never before possible," said NVIDIA's Greg Estes via press release. 

Other Quadro K5000 specs include 4GB memory, speeds up to two-times faster than the Quadro 4000, and support for CUDA. 

According to NVIDIA, the Quadro K5000 will be available from Apple resellers and distribution partners later this year for an estimated price of $2,249. Of course, if Apple does end up reworking the Mac Pro line next year, maybe we can just expect the Kepler-based cards in our next professional desktop.

Maybe.

Plex Introduces New Media Server Beta with PS3, Xbox DLNA Support

We love us some Plex here at MacLife.com, where we’ve converted an aging Mac mini into a fine home theatre server with a minimum of effort. Now that recent versions of the Plex application have separated the server software from the client software, all sorts of goodies have been coming -- such as DLNA streaming support with a new server update this week.

The wizards at Plex have announced a new Plex Media Center 0.9.6.0 beta release on Thursday which adds support for the Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) streaming standard. While that may not sound so exciting in and of itself, DLNA brings a variety of new options for Plex lovers, including streaming to many HDTVs, Blu-ray players and game consoles such as the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.
