Nvidia’s GTX 1080 and 1070 may win the overall performance competition, but they don’t represent the bulk of the GPU market. According to both AMD and Nvidia, they sell far more GPUs in the midrange than the luxury market. Today we’ll be reviewing Gigabyte’s GTX 1060 G1 Gaming 6GB to see how it compares with a range of current and previous-generation hardware from both AMD and Nvidia. ...
For the last few years, AMD and Nvidia have offered competing versions of the same technology. Both FreeSync (AMD) and G-Sync (Nvidia) are designed to smooth out gameplay presentation and offer superior image quality by matching a display’s refresh rate to the delivery of each new frame. In traditional v-sync, in contrast, frames are either displayed at a steady interval (typically 30 or 60 times ...
For the past two months, AMD and Nvidia have been launching new GPU families and pushing fresh hardware into market. While this makes for interesting reviews, it’s not worth much if consumers can’t actually buy the hardware they’re reading about. We’ve swept the Internet in the US and even checked some relative sales figures in Europe, courtesy of mindfactory.de. Let’s see how AMD ...
For more than a decade, the phrase “Intel integrated GPU” was synonymous with “terrible graphics solution.” The first Intel motherboard with integrated graphics, the i810, had terrible performance, even in 2D desktop work. The 2D graphics performance improved, but Intel’s 3D capabilities were more-or-less terrible until the launch of Sandy Bridge. Since Sandy Bridge debuted, Intel ...
When Nvidia’s CEO, Jen-Hsun Huang took the stage at CES last week he unveiled the company’s next-generation self-driving car platform, the Drive PX 2. According to Nvidia, its Drive PX 2 platform packs the same amount of compute power as six Titan X boards, in just two GPUs. During the show, Jen-Hsun displayed the new system — but what he showed from stage almost certainly ...
