...to multi GPU setups. And since no one thought about this at first, at the moment integrating power saving features inside the SLI technology seems pretty weird. And if you also add up the fact that in order to obtain the highest performance you need the maximum amount of juice, power saving features are pretty poi... |

The PCI-Express technology for graphics cards came to replace the previous AGPX8 format by mid 2004, but at that time, performance gains were minimal. Later on, although performance gains were irrelevant, GPU integrators had to abandon the AGP solutions, concentrating on the heavily promoted PCIe format. With the imp... |
