Back by popular demand! ASSIMILATE has again partnered with NVIDIA® to bring you an incredible promotion to significantly amplify artist’s creativity and productivity using SCRATCH®. Together we are announcing a trade-in program that offers a significant discount on the new Quadro® 6000 SDI graphics cards providing a seamless way for you to experience the embedded SDI audio and performance benefits of the new cards.
