Two weeks ago the release date was shared to be 19 September through a teaser. Nvidia GTX 980 Specs Leak all over the WWW - 10:09 AMįor a long time there have been many rumors on the new Maxwell based graphics cards from Nvidia. Armed with 4 GB graphics memory, the energy efficie. The long awaited Maxwell architecture based high-end cards are ready to rock and roll. We review the GeForce GTX 970 and 980 reference cards today. Review: Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 and 980 reference - 09:45 AM Check with OEMs in your region for exact shipping dates of their GeForce-based notebooks. MainGear and OriginPC are also selling gaming powerhouses with these new GPUs. Gigabyte has the Auros X7 and P35 models. Over a dozen SKUs are now available with GeForce GTX 980M and 970M. All the features, performance and efficiency combine to make Maxwell the world’s most advanced GPU architecture. This enables gaming GPUs to deliver real-time dynamic global illumination for the first time. They also support Voxel Global Illumination (VXGI) technology, which better depicts indirect lighting – including diffuse lighting, specular lighting and reflections. That means 30% more AA performance at the same quality with NVIDIA Multi-Frame Anti-Aliasing (MFAA). GeForce GTX 980M and 970M GPUs also get all the same cool technology that their desktop counterparts get. We also added features to GeForce Experience, allowing gamers to set specific game settings for use while on battery, along with a one-click optimize-for-battery button.
NVIDIA GEFORCE 930M 2GB GET MORE MEMORY UPDATE
Another big update is an improved governor to enhance battery savings. This was the result of collaboration with OEMs to enhance on-battery performance. The first thing you’ll notice is many more systems achieving playable frame rates on battery. We’ve also made big improvements to BatteryBoost in the six months since its launch. All while maintaining a smooth, playable experience. The driver-level governor takes over from there, running all your system components including CPU, GPU and memory at peak efficiency.
Instead of your notebook pushing every component to its max, BatteryBoost sets a maximum frame rate from 30 to 60 FPS. We’re addressing this with our next evolution of NVIDIA BatteryBoost. The results are an image that is much higher quality than one rendering directly to 1080p.Ī second ask from notebook gamers is the ability to untether from the wall socket and really game on battery. Then they’re scaled down to the native resolution on the notebook’s display. Maxwell’s Dynamic Super Resolution (DSR) technology can render games at 4K or other high-end resolutions.
NVIDIA GEFORCE 930M 2GB GET MORE MEMORY 1080P
The GeForce GTX 980 and GTX 970 GPUs deliver a higher fidelity gaming experience even on standard 1080p display. But most notebooks don’t have a native resolution that high, and this is where NVIDIA gives you more than just killer frame rates. We’re pushing playable resolution to 2500×1400+ at ultra settings. But how fast is it? Maxwell doubles performance compared with the first Kepler notebook GPUs on “video card killers,” like Battlefield 4 and Metro: Last Light. Just like the generations preceding it, GeForce GTX 980M is the world’s fastest notebook GPU, a title NVIDIA has held for a long time. It’s an astonishing achievement when you compare the thermal and power differences in a desktop tower and a notebook chassis. With Maxwell, that gap shrinks to 80% of the desktop equivalent and pushes the resolution well beyond 1080p. Kepler, our 9 th generation GPU, launched in 2010, closed the gap to 60%, giving gamers 1080p resolution and “ultra” settings for the first time in a notebook. NVIDIA’s 8 th-generation GPU architecture, Fermi, delivered about 40% of the desktop equivalent in 2010. And it does so with twice the energy efficiency of the previous generation. It solves some of the most complex lighting and graphics challenges in visual computing. The introduction of the GeForce GTX 970M and GeForce GTX 980M notebook GPUs is here, powered by Maxwell architecture.
