The Quadro line of GPU cards emerged in an effort towards market segmentation by Nvidia. [citation needed] In introducing Quadro, Nvidia was able to charge a premium for essentially the same graphics hardware in professional markets, and direct resources to properly serve the needs of those markets.
A current version can be downloaded from the Internet, and some Linux distributions contain it in their repositories. The 4 October 2013 beta Nvidia GeForce driver 331.13 supports the EGL interface, enabling support for Wayland in conjunction with this driver. [33] [34] Nvidia's free and open-source driver is named nv. [35]
In the middle: the FOSS stack, composed out of DRM & KMS driver, libDRM and Mesa 3D.Right side: Proprietary drivers: Kernel BLOB and User-space components. nouveau (/ n uː ˈ v oʊ /) is a free and open-source graphics device driver for Nvidia video cards and the Tegra family of SoCs written by independent software engineers, with minor help from Nvidia employees.
Kepler found use in the GK20A, the GPU component of the Tegra K1 SoC, and in the Quadro Kxxx series, the Quadro NVS 510, and Tesla computing modules. Kepler was followed by the Maxwell microarchitecture and used alongside Maxwell in the GeForce 700 series and GeForce 800M series .
Nvidia NVENC (short for Nvidia Encoder) [1] is a feature in Nvidia graphics cards that performs video encoding, offloading this compute-intensive task from the CPU to a dedicated part of the GPU. It was introduced with the Kepler -based GeForce 600 series in March 2012 (GT 610, GT620 and GT630 is Fermi Architecture).
In the R300 drivers, released alongside the GTX 680, Nvidia introduced a new feature called Adaptive VSync. This feature is intended to combat the limitation of v-sync that, when the framerate drops below 60 FPS, there is stuttering as the v-sync rate is reduced to 30 FPS, then down to further factors of 60 if needed.
Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM, [1] initially LDDM as Longhorn Display Driver Model and then WVDDM in times of Windows Vista) is the graphic driver architecture for video card drivers running Microsoft Windows versions beginning with Windows Vista.
