Thanks to smaller, more power efficient and high-performance notebook GPUs, the Ultrabook market will never be the same. Last year at the All Things D conference in Hong Kong, NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang took to the stage and declared that all future notebooks would be like the Macbook Air – but without compromises. Today, we… Read More
For the 11th consecutive year, NVIDIA is awarding substantial grants to an elite group of graduate students engaged in pushing the frontiers of GPU computing research. A total of 12 grants of $25,000 each were made under the NVIDIA Graduate Fellowship Program to students selected from hundreds of applications from three dozen countries. The students… Read More
They are the world’s fastest computers – capable of a million billion calculations per second – but what are they used for? Most of us don’t really know. For those who don’t have a computer science degree, we created this short video for you. To produce this story, we spoke with directors of two prominent… Read More
Every server manufacturer announced support last week for the new Intel Sandy Bridge CPUs in their new models. That includes PC giant Dell, which announced, for the first time, that it is supporting Tesla GPUs in its mainstream Dell PowerEdge R720 servers. And, our new benchmarks demonstrate why. The PowerEdge R720 is, by far, one… Read More
