The boost in processing speed over the baseline model allows for more data throughput, minimizing bottlenecks and dropped frames during intense gaming sequences. The EVGA Geforce GTX 970 FTW chipset features 4GB of GDDR5 vRAM coupled to 1664 CUDA GPU cores. The cores are arranged using NVIDIA’s Maxwell architecture for efficient operation. Graphics intensive programs can utilize the Maxwell architecture’s parallel configuration of the CUDA cores to speed up render times and other tasks that benefit from parallel processing. Additional benefits of Maxwell architecture include energy efficiency; the card has a maximum total power draw of 145 watts when in use. On the output panel of the card features four output ports: a DisplayPort 1.2 port, an HDMI 2.0 port, a dual-link DVI-D port, and a dual-link DVI-I port, which supports VGA output via the included DVI-I to VGA adapter. The HDMI and DisplayPort outputs support resolutions of up to 4096 x 2160. That resolution, combined with NVIDIA’s Surround, can provide an immersive gaming experience using multiple monitors. EVGA’s ACX 2.0 cooler quietly keeps the card’s operating temperature in check. A large cooling system allows for the GPU to be overclocked beyond its baseline spec. To keep the cooler quiet, the fans are driven by low-power motors and feature 11 swept fan-blades on double ball bearings to increase efficiency. This cooler is most useful in medium to large towers where airflow inside the case is not a concern. SLI Ready With a compatible motherboard and a connecting bracket, up to four GPUs of the same model can combine processing power using NVIDIA’s Scalable Link Interface (SLI). How the cards work together can be customized to suit your preferences. Alternate frame rendering has each alternating card prepare the next frame, essentially multiplying the capabilities of a single card’s maximum capable frame rate output. Each card in the configuration can also be used to improve anti-aliasing by being able to process an image in parallel with the other cards before filtering out jagged edges. Note: The benefits of SLI will differ based on CPU configuration. CUDA NVIDIA’s parallel computing platform which enables an increase in computing performance by harnessing the parallel nature of GPU processing. CUDA compatible applications can assign intensive parallel computing tasks, such as real-time video rendering, to the GPU to process, freeing up the computer’s CPU to run other tasks. 3D Vision Support When used with a 3D Vision compatible monitor and 3D Vision active-shutter glasses, full-HD resolution images are delivered to each eye. Additionally, with a 3D LightBoost compatible screen, image brightness will be maintained while using the glasses and ghosting will be reduced. PhysX NVIDIA’s hardware accelerated physics engine computes how objects move in space in real time. Having a physics engine precludes the need for programs to pre-animate rendered objects which can give an unrealistic “canned animation” feel. The PhysX engine also allows for designers to create more detailed objects, relying on the GPU’s processing power rather than a bloated programming back end. Adaptive V-Sync NVIDIA’s Adaptive Vertical Sync minimizes stuttering and tearing by monitoring and adjusting the card’s frame rate output. At high frame rates, Adaptive V-Sync is enabled to slow down the output frame rate to prevent tearing as a result of losing sync with your monitor. At lower frame rates, Adaptive V-Sync will automatically be disabled to minimize stuttering. GPU Boost 2.0 Boosts the card’s clock speed in real time based on the target temperature. If the card is running below the set target temperature, GPU Boost 2.0 will increase the clock speed to improve performance. The target temperature can be reset depending on your preference so you can have the card run more quietly for everyday tasks and older games, and run at full tilt during intense high-resolution gaming sequences. G-Sync When used with a monitor that has G-Sync hardware installed, the monitor’s refresh rate will sync and lock with the graphics card’s output frame rate. Establishing this sync removes tearing and stuttering which can result from conventional fixed screen refresh rates, especially important for gaming in stereoscopic 3D. An additional benefit of G-Sync is reduced lag so gamers will benefit from the improved command response time as well. 4K Display graphics, games, and video in UHD resolution (3840 x 2160) for increased detail on 4K resolution displays. Games which support 4K resolutions will display greater detail for enhanced realism and reduced artifacts. 4K video from services such as Netflix and YouTube can deliver full resolution video for an enhanced media experience. Surround With a single card you can expand your PC games across three displays in stereoscopic 3D for an “inside the game” experience. Add in a fourth accessory display to get access to your email, web, and other applications. VXGI Introduced with NVIDIA’s Maxwell architecture, Voxel Global Illumination can process advanced indirect lighting and reflections in real time, enabling programs to rely on the processing hardware to render reflections and shades rather than memory hogging pre-rendered textures. MFAA NDVIDIA’s Multi-Frame Anti-Aliasing is an efficient anti-aliasing method introduced with their Maxwell architecture. MFAA leverages the processing efficiency of the GPU architecture in order to analyze textures as they change rather than preloading larger textures into the card’s memory. DSR NVIDIA’s Dynamic Super Resolution is a scaling utility introduced with their Maxwell architecture. DSR uses the GPU architecture in order to take advantage of 4K capabilities with lower screen resolutions by having the graphics card render at 4K and then intelligently down-sample the output to fit the smaller screen. Aliasing and jagged artifacts are reduced by having a high-quality filter applied before the image is scaled down.
