In 2006, Nvidia's GPU had a 4x performance advantage over other CPUs. In 2018 the Nvidia GPU was 20 times faster than a comparable CPU node: the GPUs were 1.7x faster each year. Moore's law would predict a doubling every two years, however Nvidia's GPU performance was more than tripled every two years, fulfilling Huang's law. [5]
The GeForce 256 is the original release in Nvidia's "GeForce" product line.Announced on August 31, 1999 and released on October 11, 1999, the GeForce 256 improves on its predecessor by increasing the number of fixed pixel pipelines, offloading host geometry calculations to a hardware transform and lighting (T&L) engine, and adding hardware motion compensation for MPEG-2 video.
The Kepler line of graphics cards by Nvidia were released in 2012 and were used in the Nvidia's 600 and 700 series cards. A feature in this GPU microarchitecture included GPU boost, a technology that adjusts the clock-speed of a video card to increase or decrease it according to its power draw. [42]
Nvidia advertised DLSS as a key feature of the GeForce 20 series cards when they launched in September 2018. [4] At that time, the results were limited to a few video games, namely Battlefield V, [5] or Metro Exodus, because the algorithm had to be trained specifically on each game on which it was applied and the results were usually not as good as simple resolution upscaling.
Vulkan targets high-performance real-time 3D-graphics applications, such as video games and interactive media, and highly parallelized computing.Vulkan is intended to offer higher performance and more efficient CPU and GPU usage compared to the older OpenGL and Direct3D 11 APIs.
The three-game average of 8.48 million is on pace to become the least-viewed Series ever, fewer than the 9.79 million in 2020 that watched the Dodgers beat the Rays in six games.
On Fox alone, the World Series in total averaged 15.20 million viewers, up 67% from last year (9.11 million) and the best five-game average since 2017 (16.42 million).
The GeForce 40 series is a family of consumer graphics processing units (GPUs) developed by Nvidia as part of its GeForce line of graphics cards, succeeding the GeForce 30 series. The series was announced on September 20, 2022, at the GPU Technology Conference, and launched on October 12, 2022, starting with its flagship model, the RTX 4090. [1]
