![]() ![]() Buying a new GeForce RTX 30-series graphics card now comes with a year's membership of the GeForce NOW cloud gaming service, plus you get the next chapter in the Watch Dogs franchise, which supports a ton of NVIDIA RTX features, possibly including DLSS 8K.ĭOWNLOAD: NVIDIA GeForce 456.38 Game Ready Drivers NVIDIA announced the GeForce RTX 30 series "Watch Dogs: Legion" + GeForce NOW bundle. That said, the technology itself is very much present on all GPUs that support it, provided games do. NVIDIA has already restricted the NVLink interface needed for SLI only to its topmost RTX 3090 SKU, so the lack of implicit multi-GPU effectively marks the end of SLI for future GPUs. The new NVIDIA Reflex technology is formally launched, with support for "Fortnite" and "Valorant." Reflex is supported on all NVIDIA GPUs going back to the GTX 900 series "Maxwell." Optimizations are also added for "Halo 3: OSDT" and "Mafia: Definitive Edition." Also introduced are the NVIDIA Broadcast app, and a host of new GeForce Experience features, including in-game performance/overlay, one-click performance tuning, HDR ShadowPlay Capture, AV1 decoding, support for new G-SYNC compatible displays.īuried in the bowels of the driver change-log is a big disclosure, that the RTX 30-series "Ampere" GPUs don't support SLI (as in implicit multi-GPU), only explicit multi-GPU through modern APIs such as DirectX 12 and Vulkan (if supported by the game). ![]() The mammoth software release also adds optimization for "Fortnite" with RTX and DLSS on all GeForce RTX GPUs. Version 456.38 WHQL comes with support for the new GeForce RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 "Ampere" graphics cards. Nvidia’s supporting the GeForce RTX 30-series launch with more than just the cards themselves.NVIDIA today released the latest version of GeForce Game Ready software. It’s no big loss to most people, especially since these GPUs look ready to absolutely chew through frames at 1440p and 4K resolutions, but pour one out, price-is-no-object monster rig enthusiasts-unless you want to dump $3,000 into a twin 3090 rig for even better 8K gaming performance on a monster TV. ![]() Even the GeForce RTX 3080 that Nvidia called the 30-series flagship lacks it. The $1,500 GeForce RTX 3090 “ BFGPU” is the only card with an NVLink connector for SLI. GeForce RTX 3090: The more you buy, the more SLI you save. The GeForce RTX 30-series all but eliminates it. The GeForce GTX 10-series reduced SLI support to two graphics cards, down from four prior. Multi-GPU configurations haven’t really been compelling (or very operational) for several graphics card generations now, thanks to a mixture of increasingly powerful GPUs and increasingly wonky game engine support. All that said, Huang said the new cooler on the GeForce RTX 3080 operates a full 30 degrees cooler than the prior-gen RTX Titan. That’s impressively ludicrous, but some new Nvidia technology aims to put that memory and the GeForce RTX 30-series’ PCIe 4.0 support to even better use: improving your game-loading times.Įven with all that, Nvidia’s Founders Edition cards come rated for 93-degree Celsius operating temperatures, higher than the 89-degree maximum set by the older RTX 20-series GPUs. The 3090 comes packed with a whopping 24GB of it. ![]() The GeForce RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 pack cutting-edge GDDR6X memory, which promises to move data twice as fast as the GDDR6 memory found in the GeForce RTX 20-series. Of course, you want to wait for independent testing to verify Nvidia’s lofty claims, but nevertheless: Giddy up. Nvidia says the revamped RT and tensor cores inside these “Ampere”-architecture GPUs will be 1.7X and 2.7X faster than their predecessors, respectively. Nvidia NvidiaĪnd yes, the GeForce RTX 30-series should absolutely scream in games with RTX features like ray tracing and DLSS enabled. Check out these Nvidia-supplied performance charts: NvidiaĪn Nvidia-supplied comparison of how the GeForce RTX 30-series GPUs compare against the RTX 20-series in a variety of games. ![]()
