The GeForce 20 series is a family of graphics processing units developed by Nvidia. [8] Serving as the successor to the GeForce 10 series, [9] the line started shipping on September 20, 2018, [10] and after several editions, on July 2, 2019, the GeForce RTX Super line of cards was announced.
Nvidia NVDEC (formerly known as NVCUVID [1]) is a feature in its graphics cards that performs video decoding, offloading this compute-intensive task from the CPU. [2] NVDEC is a successor of PureVideo and is available in Kepler and later NVIDIA GPUs.
Nvidia RTX (also known as Nvidia GeForce RTX under the GeForce brand) is a professional visual computing platform created by Nvidia, primarily used in workstations for designing complex large-scale models in architecture and product design, scientific visualization, energy exploration, and film and video production, as well as being used in mainstream PCs for gaming.
Actual throughput varies on the selected preset, user-controlled parameters and settings, and the GPU/memory clock frequencies. The published 8× rating is achievable with the NVENC high-performance preset, which sacrifices compression efficiency and quality for encoder throughput.
Die shot of the TU104 GPU used in RTX 2080 cards Die shot of the TU106 GPU used in RTX 2060 cards Die shot of the TU116 GPU used in GTX 1660 cards. The Turing microarchitecture combines multiple types of specialized processor core, and enables an implementation of limited real-time ray tracing. [4]
On July 2, 2019, Nvidia announced the GeForce RTX Super line of cards, a 20 series refresh which comprises higher-spec versions of the RTX 2060, 2070 and 2080. The RTX 2070 and 2080 were discontinued. In February 2019, Nvidia announced the GeForce 16 series.
G-Sync is a proprietary adaptive sync technology developed by Nvidia aimed primarily at eliminating screen tearing and the need for software alternatives such as Vsync. [1] G-Sync eliminates screen tearing by allowing a video display's refresh rate to adapt to the frame rate of the outputting device (graphics card/integrated graphics) rather than the outputting device adapting to the display ...
For example, for the game Alan Wake 2 in 4K resolution at the highest graphics settings with ray tracing enabled, the use of DLSS in Performance mode is recommended even with current-generation high-end graphics cards such as the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 in order to achieve 60 fps. [35]
