In computing, CUDA is a proprietary [2] parallel computing platform and application programming interface (API) that allows software to use certain types of graphics processing units (GPUs) for accelerated general-purpose processing, an approach called general-purpose computing on GPUs.
CUDA code runs on both the central processing unit (CPU) and graphics processing unit (GPU). NVCC separates these two parts and sends host code (the part of code which will be run on the CPU) to a C compiler like GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) or Intel C++ Compiler (ICC) or Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler, and sends the device code (the part which will run on the GPU) to the GPU.
The GeForce 30 series is a suite of graphics processing units (GPUs) developed by Nvidia, succeeding the GeForce 20 series.The GeForce 30 series is based on the Ampere architecture, which features Nvidia's second-generation ray tracing (RT) cores and third-generation Tensor Cores. [3]
Nvidia claims a 128 CUDA core SMM has 90% of the performance of a 192 CUDA core SMX. [5] GM107/GM108 supports CUDA Compute Capability 5.0 compared to 3.5 on GK110/GK208 GPUs and 3.0 on GK10x GPUs. Dynamic Parallelism and HyperQ, two features in GK110/GK208 GPUs, are also supported across the entire Maxwell product line.
At its core, Nvidia's competitive advantage stems from its world-class GPUs and Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) software, which has become the foundation for AI development.
Ion GPUs are DirectX 10.0 and OpenGL 3.3 compliant. They also support CUDA and OpenCL. They can play 1080p H.264, MPEG-2 and VC-1 video using VDPAU or PureVideo HD. [2] ION-LE–based systems shared the same basic hardware as ION but lack Vista and DirectX 10 support. [3]
As of today, NVIDIA's GPUs officially support Microsoft's DirectX 12 Ultimate framework.
