More than 200 PC models will feature Nvidia Geforce GPUs with
Intel's Sandy Bridge CPUs in the first half of 2011, Nvidia
announced today.
The designs are expected to span a variety of notebook and
desktop systems from Acer, Alienware, ASUS, Dell,
Fujitsu-Siemens, HP, Lenovo, Samsung, Sony, Toshiba and more, the
company said.
Nvidia claims that as the demand for graphics processing power
continues to grow, computer makers are turning to NVIDIA GeForce
GPUs to deliver higher levels of performance not possible with
integrated graphics on applications such as games, video editing,
web browsing, and 3D movies. Although basic graphics are
integrated into Sandy Bridge CPUs, GeForce GPUs provide advanced
features and increased compatibility for the latest PC games
including those based on Microsoft DirectX 11.
"Demand from OEMs for discrete graphics solutions remains strong
and above historic levels," said Dean McCarron of Mercury
Research. "We are projecting healthy growth in the years ahead
for discrete GPU solutions for both notebook and desktop. Based
on the current attach rate for GPU shipments, Mercury Research
forecasts that discrete GPU shipments will double between 2009
and 2014."
NVIDIA GeForce GPUs offer NVIDIA 3D Vision support, PhysX engine
support, CUDA architecture support for GPU computing
applications, NVIDIA Verde notebook drivers as well as support
for NVIDIA 3DTV Play software, for connecting 3D Vision-based
notebooks and desktops to a 3D TV. |
