Most free and open-source graphics device drivers are developed by the Mesa project. The driver is made up of a compiler, a rendering API, and software which manages access to the graphics hardware. Drivers without freely (and legally) -available source code are commonly known as binary drivers.
Free and open-source drivers support a large portion (but not all) of the features available in GeForce-branded cards. For example, as of January 2014 [update] nouveau driver lacks support for the GPU and memory clock frequency adjustments, and for associated dynamic power management. [ 61 ]
The free and open-source drivers compete with proprietary closed-source drivers. Depending on the availability of hardware documentation and man-power, the free and open-source driver lag behind more or less in supporting 3D acceleration of new hardware. Also, 3D rendering performance was usually significantly slower with some notable exceptions.
The GeForce 700 series (stylized as GEFORCE GTX 700 SERIES) is a series of graphics processing units developed by Nvidia. While mainly a refresh of the Kepler microarchitecture (GK-codenamed chips), some cards use Fermi (GF) and later cards use Maxwell (GM).
The feature was first unveiled during CES 2023 as RTX Video Super Resolution. [3] The feature uses the on-board Tensor Cores to upscale browser video content in real time. [4]
The GeForce 10 series is a series of graphics processing units developed by Nvidia, initially based on the Pascal microarchitecture announced in March 2014. This design series succeeded the GeForce 900 series , and is succeeded by the GeForce 16 series and GeForce 20 series using the Turing microarchitecture .
Nvidia has ceased driver support for GeForce 6 series. The GeForce 6 series is the last to support the Windows 9x family of operating systems, as well as Windows NT 4.0. The successor GeForce 7 series only supports Windows 2000 and later (the Windows 8 drivers also support Windows 10). Windows 95: 66.94 released on December 16, 2004; Download
The GeForce 40 series is the most recent family of consumer-level graphics processing units developed by Nvidia, succeeding the GeForce 30 series. The series was announced on September 20, 2022, at the GPU Technology Conference (GTC) 2022 event, and launched on October 12, 2022, starting with its flagship model , the RTX 4090.
