NV new vest tactics GTX750 quietly upgrade GM206 runaway

Two days before IT168 information, Fast Technology reported on the GPU core information of NVIDIA's next-generation graphics card, Pascal, and also introduced the naming rules.

Returning to the "distant" generation of Maxwell architecture, the starting core is the GM107. It is also the first time that NV has released a new architecture for non-top positioning. The product is believed to be familiar to gamers. It was the GeForce GTX 750 (Ti) that debuted in February last year.

For nearly two years, the GTX 750 should have been tested by the market. Maxwell's excellent power consumption has enabled the GTX 750 Ti's thermal design to consume only 60 watts, even with external power supply (public version).

Of course, with the release of the GTX 950, the 750 would logically say that it would "relieve retirement", but foreign media broke the news that the current market demand is still strong, and NV will reload for its new core upgrade.

What new core?

Must be the second generation of Maxwell. The new core code number GM206-150-A1 looks a little weaker than the GTX 960 (GM206-300) and the GTX 950 (GM206-250).

The number of new core stream processors (CUDA cores) is 512, which is the same as the original. However, due to architectural upgrades, the new card will fully support HDMI 2.0, as well as "Multi-Frame Sampled AA" and "Dynamic Super Resolution", abbreviated as DSR (for 4K). Ultra HD). These new technologies cannot run. The other is to support the DX12 feature level 12_1.

According to foreign media, upgrading the GM206 also enables the new GTX 750 to perform the 1440P@60FPS and 4K@60FPS encoding work, which is better than the original H.264 (1080P@60FPS) (you can also say that it is an alternative vest. ).

The price will remain the same. At present, the GTX 750 is around 799 yuan. It seems that NV is trying to hold onto the throat of entry.

Whether the GTX 750 Ti will use the same strategy is unknown.
