MONTREAL — Sept. 10, 2014 — Matrox® Gra­phics Inc. today announ­ced the first two cards in the eager­ly anti­ci­pa­ted Matrox C‑Series™—the Matrox C420 quad-out­put and the Matrox C680 six-out­put PCI Express® gra­phics cards—engineered for sta­bi­li­ty, relia­bi­li­ty and advan­ced mul­ti-dis­play capa­bi­li­ties. Both cards fea­ture 2GB of on-board memo­ry and mini Dis­play­Po­rt con­nec­ti­vi­ty. They deli­ver out­stan­ding per­for­mance for con­trol room, digi­tal signage, enter­pri­se, indus­tri­al, secu­ri­ty, A/V, and embedded sys­tem applications.

The low-pro­fi­le Matrox C420 quad card fea­tures pas­si­ve coo­ling for increased relia­bi­li­ty and silent ope­ra­ti­on. Its low power con­sump­ti­on makes it a per­fect fit for small-form-fac­tor and embedded sys­tems. The sin­gle-slot Matrox C680 sup­ports up to six dis­plays or pro­jec­tors. Com­pa­ti­bi­li­ty with the latest Ultra-HD and 4K panels makes C680 a ver­sa­ti­le solu­ti­on for mul­ti-screen work­sta­tion set­ups. More dis­plays can be sup­port­ed by inser­ting two C680 cards into a sys­tem. The board-to-board frame­lock fea­ture ensu­res syn­chro­niza­ti­on of all dis­plays to redu­ce tearing on digi­tal signage and video walls.

Both new video cards work with the robust Matrox Power­Desk™ desk­top manage­ment soft­ware for Win­dows® that lets users easi­ly con­fi­gu­re and mana­ge mul­ti-dis­play set­ups. Power­Desk gives pro­fes­sio­nals a com­pre­hen­si­ve set of tools to con­trol a varie­ty of dis­play con­fi­gu­ra­ti­ons inclu­ding stret­ched or inde­pen­dent desk­tops, clo­ne mode, pivot, bezel manage­ment, and edge over­lap. Matrox advan­ced desk­top manage­ment fea­tures also let users deter­mi­ne whe­re and how pro­gram win­dows are dis­play­ed on the desktop—a pro­duc­ti­vi­ty tool desi­gned to enhan­ce mul­ti-dis­play experiences.

“This intro­duc­tion of C‑Series expands our line of mul­ti-dis­play gra­phics card to offer our cus­to­mers hig­her per­for­mance, hig­her dis­play den­si­ty solu­ti­ons,” said Caro­li­ne Injoyan, busi­ness deve­lo­p­ment mana­ger, Matrox Gra­phics Inc. “We will con­ti­nue to sup­port our pro­fes­sio­nal users with the pre­mi­um tech­ni­cal assis­tance, long pro­duct life cycles and easy-to-use Power­Desk desk­top manage­ment soft­ware that Matrox is known for.”
