  2. Celsius (microarchitecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celsius_(microarchitecture)

    Celsius is the codename for a GPU microarchitecture developed by Nvidia, and released in 1999, as the successor to the Fahrenheit (NV4, NV3...) [1] microarchitecture. It was named with reference to Celsius and used with the GeForce 256 and GeForce 2 series .

  3. Kelvin (microarchitecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin_(microarchitecture)

    Kelvin is the codename for a GPU microarchitecture developed by Nvidia, and released in 2001, as the successor to the Celsius [1] microarchitecture. It was named with reference to William Thomson (Baron Kelvin) and used with the GeForce 3 and 4 series.

  4. Pascal (microarchitecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal_(microarchitecture)

    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 ...

  5. Graphics processing unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_processing_unit

    Components of a GPU. A graphics processing unit (GPU) is a specialized electronic circuit initially designed for digital image processing and to accelerate computer graphics, being present either as a discrete video card or embedded on motherboards, mobile phones, personal computers, workstations, and game consoles.

  6. Temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature

    Most scientists measure temperature using the Celsius scale and thermodynamic temperature using the Kelvin scale, which is the Celsius scale offset so that its null point is 0 K = −273.15 °C, or absolute zero. Many engineering fields in the US, notably high-tech and US federal specifications (civil and military), also use the Kelvin and ...

  7. Degree (temperature) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_(temperature)

    The degree symbol ° is usually used, followed by the initial letter of the unit; for example, "°C" for degree Celsius. A degree can be defined as a set change in temperature measured against a given scale; for example, one degree Celsius is one-hundredth of the temperature change between the point at which water starts to change state from ...
