iguation). GeForce graphics processor GeForce newlogo.png Manufacturer Nvidia Introduced August 31, 1999; 17 years ago Type Consumer graphics cards GeForce is a brand of graphics processing units (GPUs) designed by Nvidia. As of 2016, there have been thirteen iterations of the design. The first GeForce prod ucts were discrete GPUs designed for add-on graphics boards, intended for the hi gh-margin PC gaming market, and later diversification of the product line covere d all tiers of the PC graphics market, ranging from cost-sensitive[1] GPUs integ rated on motherboards, to mainstream add-in retail boards. Most recently, GeForc e technology has been introduced into Nvidia's line of embedded application proc essors, designed for electronic handhelds and mobile handsets. With respect to discrete GPUs, found in add-in graphics-boards, Nvidia's GeForce and AMD's Radeon GPUs are the only remaining competitors in the high-end market . Along with its nearest competitor, the AMD Radeon, the GeForce architecture is moving toward general-purpose graphics processor unit (GPGPU). GPGPU is expecte d to expand GPU functionality beyond the traditional rasterization of 3D graphic s, to turn it into a high-performance computing device able to execute arbitrary programming code in the same way a CPU does, but with different strengths (high ly parallel execution of straightforward calculations) and weaknesses (worse per formance for complex decision-making code).

The company called out to the public to name the successor to the RIVA TNT2 line of graphics boards. There were over 12,000 entries received and 7 winners received a RIVA TNT2 Ultra graphics card as a reward.[2][3] License[edit] The license has common terms against reverse engineering, copying and sub-licens ing, and it disclaims warranties and liability.[4] Starting in 2016 the GeFORCE license says Nvidia "collects... personally identif iable information about Customer and CUSTOMER SYSTEM as well as configures CUSTO MER SYSTEM in order to ...

GeForce 256[edit] Main article: GeForce 256 Launched on August 31, 1999, the GeForce 256 (NV10) was the first consumer-level PC graphics chip with hardware transform, lighting, and shading although 3D gam es utilizing this feature did not appear until later. Initial GeForce 256 boards shipped with SDR SDRAM memory, and later boards shipped with faster DDR SDRAM m emory. GeForce 2 series[edit] Main article: GeForce 2 series Launched in April 2000, the first GeForce2 (NV15) was another high-performance g raphics chip. Nvidia moved to a twin texture processor per pipeline (4x2) design , doubling texture fillrate per clock compared to GeForce 256. Later, Nvidia rel eased the GeForce2 MX (NV11), which offered performance similar to the GeForce 2 56 but at a fraction of the cost. The MX was a compelling value in the low/mid-r ange market segments and was popular with OEM PC manufacturers and users alike. The GeForce 2 Ultra was the high-end model in this series. GeForce 3 series[edit] Main article: GeForce 3 series Launched in February 2001, the GeForce3 (NV20) introduced programmable vertex an d pixel shaders to the GeForce family and to consumer-level graphics accelerator s. It had good overall performance and shader support, making it popular with en thusiasts although it never hit the midrange price point. The NV2A developed for the Microsoft Xbox game console is a derivative of the GeForce 3. GeForce 4 series[edit] Main article: GeForce 4 series Launched in February 2002, the then-high-end GeForce4 Ti (NV25) was mostly a ref inement to the GeForce3. The biggest advancements included enhancements to anti- aliasing capabilities, an improved memory controller, a second vertex shader, an d a manufacturing process size reduction to increase clock speeds. Another membe r of the GeForce 4 family, the budget GeForce4 MX, was based on the GeForce2, wi th the addition of some features from the GeForce4 Ti. It targeted the value seg ment of the market and lacked pixel shaders. Most of these models used the AGP 4 interface, but a few began the transition to AGP 8. GeForce FX series[edit] Main article: GeForce FX series Launched in 2003, the GeForce FX (NV30) was a huge change in architecture compar ed to its predecessors. The GPU was designed not only to support the new Shader Model 2 specification but also to perform well on older titles. However, initial models like the GeForce FX 5800 Ultra suffered from weak floating point shader performance and excessive heat which required infamously noisy two-slot cooling solutions. Products in this series carry the 5000 model number, as it is the fif th generation of the GeForce, though Nvidia marketed the cards as GeForce FX ins tead of GeForce 5 to show off "the dawn of cinematic rendering". GeForce 6 series[edit] Main article: GeForce 6 series Launched in April 2004, the GeForce 6 (NV40) added Shader Model 3.0 support to t he GeForce family, while correcting the weak floating point shader performance o f its predecessor. It also implemented high dynamic range imaging and introduced SLI (Scalable Link Interface) and PureVideo capability (integrated partial hard ware MPEG-2, VC-1, Windows Media Video, and H.264 decoding and fully accelerated video post-processing). GeForce 7 series[edit] Main article: GeForce 7 series The seventh generation GeForce (G70/NV47) was launched in June 2005 and was the last Nvidia video card series that could support the AGP bus. The design was a r efined version of GeForce 6, with the major improvements being a widened pipelin e and an increase in clock speed. The GeForce 7 also offers new transparency sup ersampling and transparency multisampling anti-aliasing modes (TSAA and TMAA). T hese new anti-aliasing modes were later enabled for the GeForce 6 series as well . The GeForce 7950GT featured the highest performance GPU with an AGP interface in the Nvidia line. This era began the transition to the PCI-Express interface. A 128-bit, 8 ROP variant of the 7950 GT, called the RSX 'Reality Synthesizer', i s used as the main GPU in the Sony PlayStation 3. GeForce 8 series[edit] Main article: GeForce 8 series Released on November 8, 2006, the eighth-generation GeForce (originally called G 80) was the first ever GPU to fully support Direct3D 10. Manufactured using an 9 0 nm process and built around the new Tesla microarchitecture, it implemented th e unified shader model. Initially just the 8800GTX model was launched, while the GTS variant was released months into the product line's life, and it took nearl y six months for mid-range and OEM/mainstream cards to be integrated into the 8 series. The die shrink down to 65 nm and a revision to the G80 design, codenamed G92, were implemented into the 8 series with the 8800GS, 8800GT and 8800GTS-512 , first released on October 29, 2007, almost one whole year after the initial G8 0 release. GeForce 9 series and 100 series[edit] Main articles: GeForce 9 series and GeForce 100 series The first product was released on February 21, 2008.[6] Not even four months old er than the initial G92 release, all 9-series designs, both speculated and curre ntly out, are simply revisions to existing late 8-series products. The 9800GX2 u ses two G92 GPUs, as used in later 8800 cards, in a dual PCB configuration while still only requiring a single PCI-Express 16x slot. The 9800GX2 utilizes two se parate 256-bit memory busses, one for each GPU and its respective 512 MB of memo ry, which equates to an overall of 1 GB of memory on the card (although the SLI configuration of the chips necessitates mirroring the frame buffer between the t wo chips, thus effectively halving the memory performance of a 256-bit/512MB con figuration). The later 9800GTX features a single G92 GPU, 256-bit data bus, and 512 MB of GDDR3 memory.[7] Prior to the release, no concrete information was known except that the official s claimed the next generation products had close to 1 TFLOPS processing power wi th the GPU cores still being manufactured in the 65 nm process, and reports abou t Nvidia downplaying the significance of Direct3D 10.1.[8] On March 2009, severa l sources reported that Nvidia had quietly launched a new series of GeForce prod ucts, namely the GeForce 100 Series, which consists of rebadged 9 Series parts.[ 9][10][11] GeForce 100 series products were not available for individual purchas e.[1] GeForce 200 series and 300 series[edit] Main articles: GeForce 200 series and GeForce 300 series Based on the GT200 graphics processor consisting of 1.4 billion transistors, cod enamed Tesla, the 200 series was launched on June 16, 2008.[12] The next generat ion of the GeForce series takes the card-naming scheme in a new direction, by re placing the series number (such as 8800 for 8-series cards) with the GTX or GTS suffix (which used to go at the end of card names, denoting their 'rank' among o ther similar models), and then adding model-numbers such as 260 and 280 after th at. The series features the new GT200 core on a 65nm die.[13] The first products were the GeForce GTX 260 and the more expensive GeForce GTX 280.[14] The GeForc e 310 was released on November 27, 2009, which is a rebrand of GeForce 210.[15][ 16] The 300 series cards are rebranded DirectX 10.1 compatible GPUs from the 200 series, which were not available for individual purchase. GeForce 400 series and 500 series[edit] Main articles: GeForce 400 series and GeForce 500 series On April 7, 2010, Nvidia released[17] the GeForce GTX 470 and GTX 480, the first cards based on the new Fermi architecture, codenamed GF100; they were the first Nvidia GPUs to utilize 1 GB or more of GDDR5 memory. The GTX 470 and GTX 480 we re heavily criticized due to high power use, high temperatures, and very loud no ise that were not balanced by the performance offered, even though the GTX 480 w as the fastest DirectX 11 card as of its introduction. In November 2010, Nvidia released a new flagship GPU based on an enhanced GF100 architecture (GF110), called the GTX 580, that featured higher performance, less power utilization, less heat, and less noise than the GTX 480. This GPU receive d much better reviews than the GTX 480. Nvidia later also released the GTX 590, which packs two GF110 GPUs on a single card. GeForce 600 series, 700 series and 800M series[edit] Main articles: GeForce 600 series, GeForce 700 series, and GeForce 800M series Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 Ti, a PCI Express 3.0 16 graphics card In September 2010, Nvidia announced that the successor to Fermi microarchitectur e would be the Kepler microarchitecture, manufactured with the TSMC 28 nm fabric ation process. Earlier, Nvidia had been contracted to supply their top-end GK110 cores for use in Oak Ridge National Laboratory's "Titan" supercomputer, leading to a shortage of GK110 cores. After AMD launched their own annual refresh in ea rly 2012, the Radeon HD 7000 series, Nvidia began the release of the GeForce 600 series in March 2012. The GK104 core, originally intended for their mid-range s egment of their lineup, became the flagship GTX 680. It introduced significant i mprovements in performance, heat, and power efficiency compared to the Fermi arc hitecture and closely matched AMD's flagship Radeon HD 7970. It was quickly foll owed by the dual-GK104 GTX 690 and the GTX 670, which featured only a slightly c ut-down GK104 core and was very close in performance to the GTX 680. With the GTX TITAN, Nvidia also released GPU Boost 2.0, which would allow the GP U clock speed to increase indefinitely until a user-set temperature limit was re ached without passing a user-specified maximum fan speed. The final GeForce 600 series release was the GTX 650 Ti BOOST based on the GK106 core, in response to AMD's Radeon HD 7790 release. At the end of May 2013, Nvidia announced the 700 s eries, which was still based on the Kepler architecture, however it featured a G K110-based card at the top of the lineup. The GTX 780 was a slightly cut-down TI TAN that achieved nearly the same performance for two-thirds of the price. It fe atured the same advanced reference cooler design, but did not have the unlocked double-precision cores and was equipped with 3 GB of memory. At the same time, Nvidia announced ShadowPlay, a screen capture solution that us ed an integrated H.264 encoder built into the Kepler architecture that Nvidia ha d not revealed previously. It could be used to record gameplay without a capture card, and with negligible performance decrease compared to software recording s olutions, and was available even on the previous generation GeForce 600 series c ards. The software beta for ShadowPlay, however, experienced multiple delays and would not be released until the end of October 2013. A week after the release o f the GTX 780, Nvidia announced the GTX 770 to be a rebrand of the GTX 680. It w as followed by the GTX 760 shortly after, which was also based on the GK104 core and similar to the GTX 660 Ti. No more 700 series cards were set for release in 2013, although Nvidia announced G-Sync, another feature of the Kepler architect ure that Nvidia had left unmentioned, which allowed the GPU to dynamically contr ol the refresh rate of G-Sync-compatible monitors which would release in 2014, t o combat tearing and judder. However, in October, AMD released the R9 290X, whic h came in at $100 less than the GTX 780. In response, Nvidia slashed the price o f the GTX 780 by $150 and released the GTX 780 Ti, which featured a full 2880-co re GK110 core even more powerful than the GTX TITAN, along with enhancements to the power delivery system which improved overclocking, and managed to pull ahead of AMD's new release. The GeForce 800M series consists of rebranded 700M series parts based on the Kep ler architecture and some lower-end parts based on the newer Maxwell architectur e. GeForce 900 series[edit] Main article: GeForce 900 series In March 2013, Nvidia announced that the successor to Kepler would be the Maxwel l microarchitecture.[18] It was released in 2014. GeForce 10 series[edit] Main article: GeForce 10 series In March 2014, Nvidia announced that the successor to Maxwell would be the Pasca l microarchitecture; announced on the 6th May 2016 and released on the 27th May 2016. Architectural improvements include the following:[19][20] In Pascal, an SM (streaming multiprocessor) consists of 64 CUDA cores, a number identical to AMD's GCN CU (compute unit). Maxwell packed 128, Kepler 192, Fermi 32 and Tesla only 8 CUDA cores into an SM; the GP100 SM is partitioned into two processing blocks, each having 32 single-precision CUDA Cores, an instruction bu ffer, a warp scheduler, 2 texture mapping units and 2 dispatch units. GDDR5X New memory standard supporting 10Gbit/s data rates and an updated memory controller. Only the Nvidia Titan X and GTX 1080 support GDDR5X. The GTX 1070, G TX 1060, GTX 1050TI, and GTX 1050 use GDDR5.[21] Unified memory A memory architecture, where the CPU and GPU can access both main system memory and memory on the graphics card with the help of a technology cal led "Page Migration Engine". NVLink A high-bandwidth bus between the CPU and GPU, and between multiple GPUs. Allows much higher transfer speeds than those achievable by using PCI Express; e stimated to provide between 80 and 200 GB/s.[22][23] 16-bit (FP16) floating-point operations can be executed at twice the rate of 32- bit floating-point operations ("single precision")[24] and 64-bit floating-point operations ("double precision") executed at half the rate of 32-bit floating po int operations (Maxwell 1/32 rate).[25] Variants[edit] Mobile GPUs[edit] Since the GeForce2, Nvidia has produced a number of graphics chipsets for notebo ok computers under the GeForce Go branding. Most of the features present in the desktop counterparts are present in the mobile ones. These GPUs are generally op timized for lower power consumption and less heat output in order to be used in notebook PCs and small desktops. Beginning with the GeForce 8 series, the GeForce Go brand was discontinued and t he mobile GPUs were integrated with the main line of GeForce GPUs, but their nam e suffixed with an M. This ended in 2016 with the launch of the laptop GeForce 1 0 series - Nvidia dropped the M suffix, opting to unify the branding between the ir desktop and laptop GPU offerings, as notebook Pascal GPUs are almost as power ful as their desktop counterparts (something Nvidia tested with their "desktop-c lass" notebook GTX 980 GPU back in 2015).[26] Small form factor GPUs[edit] Similar to the mobile GPUs, Nvidia also released a few GPUs in "small form facto r" format, for use in all-in-one desktops. These GPUs are suffixed with an S, si milar to the M used for mobile products.[27] Integrated desktop motherboard GPUs[edit] Beginning with the nForce 4, Nvidia started including onboard graphics solutions in their motherboard chipsets. These onboard graphics solutions were called mGP Us (motherboard GPUs).[28] Nvidia discontinued the nForce range, including these mGPUs, in 2009.[citation needed] After the nForce range was discontinued, Nvidia released their Ion line in 2009, which consisted of a Intel Atom CPU partnered with an low-end GeForce 9 series GPU, fixed on the motherboard. Nvidia released an upgraded Ion 2 in 2010, this t ime containing a low-end GeForce 300 series GPU. Nomenclature[edit] This section needs additional citations for verification.

Graphics device drivers[edit] Proprietary[edit] Nvidia develops and publishes GeForce drivers for Windows XP x86/x86-64 and late r, Linux x86/x86-64/ARMv7-A, OS X 10.5 and later, Solaris x86/x86-64 and FreeBSD x86/x86-64. A current version can be downloaded from Nvidia and most Linux dist ributions contain it in their own repositories. Nvidia GeForce driver 340.24 fro m 8 July 2014 supports the EGL interface enabling support for Wayland in conjunc tion with this driver.[29][30] This may be different for the Nvidia Quadro brand , which is based on identical hardware but features OpenGL-certified graphics de vice drivers. Basic support for the DRM mode-setting interface in the form of a new kernel mod ule named nvidia-modeset.ko has been available since version 358.09 beta.[31] Th e support Nvidia's display controller on the supported GPUs is centralized in nv idia-modeset.ko. Traditional display interactions (X11 modesets, OpenGL SwapBuff ers, VDPAU presentation, SLI, stereo, framelock, G-Sync, etc.) initiate from the various user-mode driver components and flow to nvidia-modeset.ko.[32] On the same day the Vulkan graphics API was publicly released, Nvidia released d rivers that fully supported it.[33] Legacy driver:[34] GeForce driver 71.x provides support for RIVA TNT, RIVA TNT2, GeForce 256 and Ge Force 2 series GeForce driver 96.x provides support for GeForce 2 series, GeForce 3 series and GeForce 4 series GeForce driver 173.x provides support for GeForce FX series GeForce driver 304.x provides support for GeForce 6 series and GeForce 7 series GeForce driver 340.x provides support for Tesla 1 and 2-based, i.e. GeForce 8 se ries GeForce 300 series Usually a legacy driver does feature support for newer GPUs as well, but since n ewer GPUs are supported by newer GeForce driver numbers which regularly provide more features and better support, the end-user is encouraged to always use the h ighest possible drivers number. Current driver: GeForce driver latest provides support for Fermi-, Kepler-, Maxwell- and Pascal- based though Vulkan-support has not been made available for Fermis. Free and open-source[edit] Main article: Free and open-source "Nouveau" graphics device driver Community-created, free and open-source drivers exist as an alternative to the d rivers released by Nvidia. Open-source drivers are developed primarily for Linux , however there may be ports to other operating systems. The most prominent alte rnative driver is the reverse-engineered free and open-source nouveau graphics d evice driver. Nvidia has publicly announced to not provide any support for such additional device drivers for their products,[35] although Nvidia has contribute d code to the Nouveau driver.[36] Free and open-source drivers support a large portion (but not all) of the featur es available in GeForce-branded cards. For example, as of January 2014 nouveau d river lacks support for the GPU and memory clock frequency adjustments, and for associated dynamic power management.[37] Also, Nvidia's proprietary drivers cons istently perform better than nouveau in various benchmarks.[38] However, as of A ugust 2014 and version 3.16 of the Linux kernel mainline, contributions by Nvidi a allowed partial support for GPU and memory clock frequency adjustments to be i mplemented.[citation needed] References[edit] ^ Jump up to: a b c "GeForce Graphics Cards".
