A free and open-source graphics device driver is a software stack which controls computer-graphics hardware and supports graphics-rendering application programming interfaces (APIs) and is released under a free and open-source software license. Graphics device drivers are written for specific hardware to work within a specific operating system ...
In the middle: the FOSS stack, composed out of DRM & KMS driver, libDRM and Mesa 3D.Right side: Proprietary drivers: Kernel BLOB and User-space components. nouveau (/ n uː ˈ v oʊ /) is a free and open-source graphics device driver for Nvidia video cards and the Tegra family of SoCs written by independent software engineers, with minor help from Nvidia employees.
All cards have a PCIe 2.0 x16 Bus interface. The base requirement for Vulkan 1.0 in terms of hardware features was OpenGL ES 3.1 which is a subset of OpenGL 4.3, which is supported on all Fermi and newer cards. Memory bandwidths stated in the following table refer to Nvidia reference designs.
Deep learning super sampling. Deep learning super sampling ( DLSS) is a family of real-time deep learning image enhancement and upscaling technologies developed by Nvidia that are exclusive to its RTX line of graphics cards, [ 1] and available in a number of video games. The goal of these technologies is to allow the majority of the graphics ...
GeForce 6 series. The GeForce 6 series ( codename NV40) is the sixth generation of Nvidia 's GeForce line of graphics processing units. Launched on April 14, 2004, the GeForce 6 family introduced PureVideo post-processing for video, SLI technology, and Shader Model 3.0 support (compliant with Microsoft DirectX 9.0c specification and OpenGL 2.0).
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.
RivaTuner. RivaTuner is a freeware overclocking and hardware monitoring program that was first developed by Alexey Nicolaychuk in 1997 [ 1] for the Nvidia video cards. It was a pioneering application that influenced (and in some cases was integrated into) the design of subsequent freeware graphics card overclocking and monitoring utilities.
Nvidia NVDEC. Nvidia NVDEC (formerly known as NVCUVID[ 1]) is a feature in its graphics cards that performs video decoding, offloading this compute-intensive task from the CPU. [ 2] NVDEC is a successor of PureVideo and is available in Kepler and later NVIDIA GPUs. It is accompanied by NVENC for video encoding in Nvidia's Video Codec SDK.
