  2. Nvidia Optimus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia_Optimus

    Nvidia Optimus is a computer GPU switching technology created by Nvidia which, depending on the resource load generated by client software applications, will seamlessly switch between two graphics adapters within a computer system in order to provide either maximum performance or minimum power draw from the system's graphics rendering hardware.

  3. Nvidia G-Sync - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia_G-Sync

    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 ...

  4. Hardware overlay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_overlay

    Secondary displays require both hardware and driver support; some graphics cards may support overlay on the second display while their drivers may not yet support it (note: recent (July 2008) graphics chipset driver bugs can cause most video formats apart from mpeg2 to work on both monitors, and mpeg2 only on the primary with most players).

  5. VirtualLink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtualLink

    As of Nvidia's GeForce 30 series cards announcement, all of Nvidia's new Founders Edition GPUs, alongside the partner boards announced so far, lacked a VirtualLink port due to its discontinuation. [10] By contrast, the AMD Radeon RX 6000 series, announced in October 2020, implemented a VirtualLink port for the first time. [11]

  6. GPU switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPU_switching

    A classic motherboard with on-board integrated graphics processors, a discrete graphics card can be installed at a PCI slot. GPU switching is a mechanism used on computers with multiple graphic controllers. This mechanism allows the user to either maximize the graphic performance or prolong battery life by switching between the graphic cards.

    However, if there are two high-end graphics cards installed and the SLI bridge is omitted, the performance will suffer severely, as the chipset does not have enough bandwidth. Configurations include: Two-way, three-way, and four-way SLI uses two, three, or four individual graphics cards respectively. Two GPUs on one graphics card.
