    Question Nvidia geforce vs quadro gpus

    I am wondering what are the pros of getting a quadro gpu? As far as I can tell, for a large percent of use cases, someone can get more gpu performance/amount spent on the gpu from a comparable geforce gpu. I am trying to convince myself one way or another on whether to get a laptop with a...

    Are GTX 10-Series Cards Getting Faster?

    Haven't followed these things like I used to, but I was curious as I finally upgraded my 660 to a 1060 and noticed a curious review here on AT. In the original review back in 20116, the 1060 FE showed 66.9 FPS in GTA at 1080. Looking at the same card in the 1660 review the same card pushed 76...

    Question RTX 2060 low usage

    PC Specs: i7 4790k @stock 16GB RAM MSI Ventus RTX 2060 OC So I have been pleased with this card (RTX 2060) as it is a big upgrade in performance vs my old R9 380 despite not reaching 100% usage. My concern however is that when gaming, my GPU never seems to hit 99/100% usage. Often it is around...

    System Freezing After GT 1030 Added

    I replaced an older AMD HD6450 PCI-E card with a new MSI GT 1030 card. Now I'm seeing freezing sometimes when I play videos in a browser. The freezing makes the whole system pause for a second or two, even the mouse. This includes sites like Youtube and Netflix. I tried clearing out all of...

    Speculating: nVIDIA CPU and x86 emulated Windows

    Taking the example of Vatilla series of speculations, I started to tought, nVIDIA will return this time for the emulated Windows 10, in order to compete against Qualcomm? This article indicated that nVIDIA initially declined...

    Did Office Depot just one-up NVidia on me?

    Some of you may have read my thread here where NVidia basically charged my card weeks before the product actually shipped. Well, what I never said at that time is that I also placed an order at Office Depot that was expected to ship ~4weeks later... by mid / end of Feb. After the NVidia card...

    Running 10 x 4K displays

    Hi, I am trying to run ten 4K 55 inch TV's, and trying to figure out the most cost effective way to do it. The 10 screens will all show different images that will fade in and out (no video), like a slide show. I am not looking to span all 10 displays into one big display. What would be the...

    Do I need a dedicated GPU?

    I'm researching new desktops and maybe the hardest component is the GPU. I've read articles suggesting just about every desktop user would benefit from a graphics upgrade. Other people have told me a dedicated graphics card would be a waste of money since I don't play PC games. I do occasional...

    Radeon R9 270 2GB vs GTX 1050 4GB (notebook)

    About to move and thinking about going all laptop to save space. Is the GTX 1050 4GB as fast or faster than my 270 (270 with OC right below 270x) I'll be pairing this likely with an i5-7300HQ (4c4t 2.5-3.5). On a budget but also want it to last a while, hence not going with MX 150 laptops...

    Peak driver for the GeForce GTX 670

    What is the best driver for the GTX 670? I was wondering this since I've heard reports that NVIDIA hasn't really paid much attention to the Kepler graphics cards and as such they haven't gotten very good drivers recently. If this is the case, then that would mean that there is a specific peak...

    GTX 960 - dud or just terrible

    Hi, I've recently purchased a GTX 960 and frankly, it sucks. I've been playing games that should be easily running like overwatch or g-mod and its crashing every time without fail. I'm just wondering if its got something broken, maybe with antialiasing as I've had a few problems with that and...

    At least slightly shady NVidia experience

    What happened: * 1/18/18 - Placed order for GTX1060 6gb FE... estimate is 3wks until shipping * 1/19 or 1/20 (I can't remember if it was the day after) I noticed the transaction "settled" / charged with a date of 1/18. I thought this was bull since the card did not ship, but I let it slide *...

    For older generation cards are older drivers superior to new ones?

    I was playing Prey (2006) on my GTX 580 and there were these predictable framespikes and freezes. Predictable as in if you exit the game and load it again these stutters will happen at the exact same place every time. So I assumed that this was a problem with the game itself. But I installed a...

    Why are frametimes smoother on Nvidia than on AMD?

    I was browsing google for frametime graphs to see whether I should buy the gtx 1080 or the 980 ti cause people kept saying the 1080 has massive frametime spikes that have never been fixed. I was never an expert on which gpu company has better frametime stability but I came across a consistent...

    Help with underperforming GTX 1080

    Hello all. I'm new to the forum and was hoping to get some help. I just recently upgraded from an Nvidia GTX 1050Ti to a GTX 1080 (Zotac) to improve my game performance and frankly, it doesn't seem to be working anywhere near as well as it should. I have been getting benchmark scores between...
