Graphics cards use fanless cooling method

The Millennium P690 Series fanless multidisplay graphics cards from Matrox Graphics Inc. are available in several form factors. The fanless graphics cards offer a power consumption level of 12W or less, and unified display drivers for easy deployment across multiple systems. In addition, the P690 Plus LP PCI/PCIe products can be upgraded (via a Quad-HD15 cable) to drive four analog monitors —and up to eight analog or four digital monitors in a joined-graphics card configuration.

The P690 Series is a redesign of the P650 Series graphics cards, combining new 90nm chip design and DDR2 memory technology with Matrox's unified drivers.

P690 products ship with Matrox PowerDesk software, and are compatible with the free Matrox PowerSpace software that allows users to manage multiple virtual desktops. Prices are as follows: P690 PCIe x16 128Mbyte, $199; P690 PCI 128Mbyte, $199; P690 LP PCIe x16 128Mbyte, $249; P690 LP PCIe x1 128Mbyte, $249; P690 Plus LP PCIe x16 256Mbyte, $289; and P690 Plus LP PCI 256Mbyte, $289. A quad-monitor upgrade cable (CAB-L60-4AXAF) costs $99.
