Nvidia has quietly removed some of the concurrent video encoding limitations from its consumer graphics processing units, so they can now encode up to five streams. The move will simplify the life of video enthusiasts, but Nvidia’s data center grade and professional GPUs will continue to have a massive edge over consumer products as now…
Nvidia teased its forthcoming Arm-based Grace CPU at GTC 2023, but the company’s announcement that systems will now ship in the second half of this year represents a delay from its original launch timeline that targeted the first half of 2023. We asked Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang about the delay during a press question and…
Nvidia announced a new dual-GPU product, the H100 NVL, during its GTC Spring 2023 keynote. This won’t bring back SLI or multi-GPU gaming, and won’t be one of the best graphics cards for gaming, but instead targets the growing AI market. From the information and images Nvidia has released, the H100 NVL (H100 NVLink) will…
You won’t find Nvidia’s H100 (Hopper) GPU on the list of the best graphics cards. However, the H100’s forte lies in artificial intelligence (AI), making it a coveted GPU in the AI industry. And now that everyone is jumping on the AI bandwagon, Nvidia’s H100 has become even more popular. Nvidia claims that the H100…

The company continues to offer third-party GeForce RTX 30-series products in its own online store (these are among the best graphics cards one can buy today), but it is impossible to…
The best graphics cards aren’t just for playing games. Artificial intelligence training and inference, professional applications, video encoding and decoding can all benefit from having a better GPU. Yes, games still get the most attention, but we like to look at the other aspects as well. Here we’re going to focus specifically on the video…
If it hurts your eyes to watch old, lower-resolution videos on the web, Microsoft is looking to fix that. In a blog post, the company announced a new feature called video super resolution for Edge, its web browser. The feature, which is being tested with Edge Canary, “uses machine learning to enhance the quality of…
Nvidia still believes that it will be able to find the right partners for its compute GPUs in the Asia Pacific regions if the U.S. government adds further curbs to sell its A100 and H100 datacenter grade products to Huawei and Inspur. But this likely won’t be particularly easy, as those companies are large, and…
