I remember back when Matrox shipped its very first graphics card out of Dorval, Quebec, in 1978—three years before the IBM PC even existed. That makes them the original graphics card pioneer, full stop.
Fast-forward to 2023, and Matrox did something fascinating: They partnered with Intel—another genuine pioneer, having helped invent the integrated CPU back in 1968—to launch the Luma series. Powered by Intel Arc GPUs, Luma cards can drive up to 16 simultaneous displays at 5K resolution, making them the quiet powerhouse behind digital signage walls, control rooms, and financial trading floors worldwide.
