Vulkan is a low-level, low-overhead cross-platform API and open standard for 3D graphics and computing. [17] [18] [19] It was intended to address the shortcomings of OpenGL, and allow developers more control over the GPU.
DGX-1 servers feature 8 GPUs based on the Pascal or Volta daughter cards [1] with 128 GB of total HBM2 memory, connected by an NVLink mesh network. [2] The DGX-1 was announced on the 6th of April in 2016. [3] All models are based on a dual socket configuration of Intel Xeon E5 CPUs, and are equipped with the following features. 512 GB of DDR4-2133
RivaTuner is a freeware overclocking and hardware monitoring program that was first developed by Alexey Nicolaychuk in 1997 [1] for the Nvidia video cards.It was a pioneering application that influenced (and in some cases was integrated into) the design of subsequent freeware graphics card overclocking and monitoring utilities.
OpenGL (Open Graphics Library [4]) is a cross-language, cross-platform application programming interface (API) for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics.The API is typically used to interact with a graphics processing unit (GPU), to achieve hardware-accelerated rendering.
Painting of Blaise Pascal, eponym of architecture. Pascal is the codename for a GPU microarchitecture developed by Nvidia, as the successor to the Maxwell architecture. The architecture was first introduced in April 2016 with the release of the Tesla P100 (GP100) on April 5, 2016, and is primarily used in the GeForce 10 series, starting with the GeForce GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 (both using the ...
The GeForce 16 series is a series of graphics processing units (GPUs) developed by Nvidia, based on the Turing microarchitecture, announced in February 2019. [5] The 16 series, commercialized within the same timeframe as the 20 series , aims to cover the entry-level to mid-range market, not addressed by the latter.
General-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU, or less often GPGP) is the use of a graphics processing unit (GPU), which typically handles computation only for computer graphics, to perform computation in applications traditionally handled by the central processing unit (CPU).
The draw call improvements of Mantle help alleviate cases where the CPU is the bottleneck. The design goals of Mantle are to allow games and applications to utilize the CPUs and GPUs more efficiently, eliminate CPU bottlenecks by reducing API validation overhead and allowing more effective scaling on multiple CPU cores, provide faster draw routines, and allow greater control over the graphics ...
