CES 2022 – Nvidia News
Nvidia attended CES 2022 and we know the direction of the company for the next year, what new products it has presented and what services it offers in the future.
A total of 160 laptops with Nvidia video cards have been unveiled for both gaming and photo and video editing, but new desktop video cards have also been announced.
“GeForce RTX is transforming gaming and opening up vast digital worlds. Today’s announcements further strengthen GeForce as the ultimate platform for gamers and content creators, ”said Jeff Fisher, senior vice president of consumer products at NVIDIA. “And GeForce NOW continues to grow, with the platform reaching billions of gamers.”
The RTX 3080Ti offers 16GB of GDDR6 memory and is the fastest video card ever installed on a laptop. It is more powerful than a desktop Titan RTX, and the starting price for the laptops that integrate this card is $ 2,500.
Nvidia also introduced the 4th generation of Max-Q technology, which has revolutionized the performance of laptops since 4 years ago. Features include CPU Optimizer, Rapid Core Scaling and Battery Booster 2.0.
The Studio platform has even been expanded. New features include an update to NVIDIA Canvas, a painting application that uses artificial intelligence to generate simple line landscapes.
The Studio platform also includes a wide range of NVIDIA Studio laptops, with designs from ASUS, MSI and Razer, which are based on new GeForce RTX 3080 Ti and GeForce RTX 3070 Ti laptop video cards. With the latest RTX video cards, these laptops are on average 7 times faster for 3D rendering than the newest MacBook Pro 16. They also have support for over 200 creative applications, as well as accelerated ray tracing. of RTX, AI and NVIDIA’s high-performance video processor, making them the perfect tools for any creative workflow.
RTX 3050 is a newly released video card (hopefully in stock) that uses Ampere architecture. Nvidia says it is the first video card in the 50 series to offer over 60 FPS in Ray Tracing games. This means that it is a powerful video card, only the most likely will run in Full HD.
With 75% of gamers still using GTX video cards, the 3050, which benefits from the second generation of RT cores, as well as the third generation of Tensor cores for DLSS and AI, is a significant upgrade opportunity to reach RTX. The new RTX 3050, which comes with 8GB of GDDR6 memory, starts at EUR 350 and will be available from January 27 to NVIDIA partners worldwide.
NVIDIA Omniverse is released for content creators, enriching the Nvidia Studio ecosystem. It’s completely free for millions of content creators who use RTX video cards. Help artists, designers, and content creators connect and collaborate on top design applications on their own RTX-based laptops or workstations.
A new feature of the platform, Omniverse Nucleus Cloud allows collaboration with a single click, sharing very large Omniverse 3D scenes. Artists can collaborate in real time from the same room or from different parts of the world without transferring large data sets. NVIDIA also introduces new developments for the Omniverse Machinima platform – the Omniverse application that allows real-time collaboration to animate and manipulate characters in virtual worlds – with new characters, games, objects and environments. Omniverse Audio2Face, which generates fast
and slightly animated facial expressions only from audio sources, received an update with blendshape support and direct export to MetaHuman from Epic.
There is now a new category of monitors, 1440p eSports. Nvidia Research has found that 27-inch 1440p monitors improve in-game targeting by up to 3% compared to 24-inch Full HD monitors when it comes to small targets. For competitive games, that 3% matters.
Nvidia announces 4 new 1440p monitors in the eSports category: ASUS ROG Swift 360Hz PG27AQN has a 360Hz screen refresh rate. AOC AG274QGM – AGON PRO Mini LED, MSI MEG 271Q Mini LED, and ViewSonic XG272G-2K Mini LED feature mini-LEDs with 300Hz screen refresh rates. All come with NVIDIA Esports Vibrance, Dual-Format and Reflex analysis features.
The Nvidia Reflex ecosystem also expands with 6 new Reflex monitors and 6 new mice. There are now over 50 Reflex mice and monitors from 16 partners, all using the Reflex Latency Analyzer, which allows gamers to easily measure the latency of the system with a single click.
As for GeForce NOW, NVIDIA today announced the expansion of its partnership with Electronic Arts, bringing Battlefield 4 and Battlefield V to GeForce NOW, available today.
NVIDIA has also announced a partnership with Samsung to integrate GeForce NOW on smart TVs, starting in Q2 this year. Last month, GeForce NOW was released in beta on LG’s Smart WebOS TVs. Teaming up with AT&T as the 5G technical innovation partner, GeForce NOW brings the power of PC gaming to mobile devices. Starting in January, AT&T customers who own a 5G device on an unlimited 5G subscription, or who qualify for an unlimited subscription, will receive a free 6-month GeForce NOW Priority subscription.
Personally, I think that Nvidia is expanding nicely and has great confidence in its technologies. The mere fact that he attracted other partners in this race shows an even greater confidence.
