    UNRIVALLED PERFORMANCE AND QUALITY
    Graphics Processor
    Packing in 3 billion transistors, double the CUDA cores of previous generation GPUs¹, a high speed GDDR5 memory interface, and full DirectX 11 support, GF100 is designed for groundbreaking graphics performance. With a revolutionary new scalable geometry pipeline and enhanced anti-aliasing capabilities, GF100 delivers both unrivalled performance and breathtaking image quality.
    NVIDIA PolyMorph Engine:
    The Gold Standard in Tessellation
    With the PolyMorph Engine, GF100 implements the world’s first scalable geometry pipeline with up to 16 individual tessellation engines on a single GPU
    Faster, High Quality Anti-aliasing
    GF100 implements a brand new 32x antialiasing mode for higher levels of image quality. And the GPU’s enhanced compression engine maintains incredible performance.
    WORLD CLASS COMPUTE ARCHITECTURE FOR GAMING
    Gaming PC
    Next generation games will demand much more than just fast rendering of triangles and pixels—they will require the GPU to compute physics, simulate artificial intelligence, and render advanced cinematic effects. These demands are all met by the next generation NVIDIA® CUDA™ architecture in GF100 GPUs.
    Real Time Physics

    The GF100 compute architecture was designed to take NVIDIA® PhysX® technology to the next level.

    Advanced Cinematic Effects

    The next generation CUDA architecture accelerates advanced gaming effects for crisper, more realistic visuals.

    Ray tracing: the future of gaming

    GF100 brings interactive ray tracing to the consumer market for the first time, providing a glimpse into the future.

    TOTAL IMMERSION
    Total immersion
    Prepare to be blown away by the most immersive PC gaming experience imaginable. Leveraging the power of multiple GF100 GPUs in an NVIDIA® SLI® configuration, NVIDIA® 3D Vision™ Surround enables a new level of eye-popping 3D stereo gaming, expanding your real estate across 3 panels for the ultimate “inside the game” feeling². And next generation GeForce GPUs provide the incredible graphics horsepower to run your game in 3D stereo, across 3 panels, at HD resolutions up to 1920x1080. Not ready to enter the third dimension? NVIDIA® Surround™ will also be supported with GF100 on non-stereo displays.
