GoForce 3D 4500 Features High-Performance 3D and Multimedia Functionality, Revolutionary Power Management, and 3.1 Megapixel Camera Support  in a Single Processor

September 21, 2004 - NVIDIA Corporation, a worldwide leader in graphics and digital media processors, today unveiled the GoForceTM 3D 4500, the world's first 3D wireless media processor (WMP).

The NVIDIA® GoForce 3D 4500 WMP enables a whole new level of interactive content not previously possible on cell phones, PDAs, or other handheld devices. For the first time, mobile content developers can harness a powerful 3D medium to create rich, dynamic, lifelike worlds and characters. Additionally, mobile devices powered by the new 3D WMP will be able to synthesize amazingly realistic environments with objects that behave according to complex physics and intelligent characters with true-to-life personalities.


The unique features of the GoForce 3D 4500 WMP include:

  • Specifically designed for handsets, the GoForce 3D 4500 features geometry processing for arcade-quality 3D acceleration and gaming
  • Programmable shaders, bilinear and trilinear texture filtering, texture compression, support for six simultaneous textures, and a 40-bit color pipeline for high-resolution detailed images
  • Revolutionary new NVIDIA nPower technology for better battery life allowing for longer talk time
  • Support for MPEG-4 and H.263 formats for VHS-quality recording and playback
  • A 3.0 megapixel JPEG codec, for capturing and viewing sharp, crystal-clear photos
