The PB driver is a superset of the NVIDIA Studio Driver and provides all the benefits of the Studio Driver of the same version, in addition to NVIDIA RTX-specific enhancements and testing.
PB drivers are designed and tested to provide long-term stability and availability, making these drivers ideal for enterprise customers and other users who require application and hardware certification from ISVs and OEMs respectively. This new driver provides improvements over the previous branch in the areas of application performance, API interoperability (e.g., OpenCL/Vulkan), and application power management. Release 470 is the latest Production Branch (PB) release of the NVIDIA RTX Enterprise Driver. 0 v1.NVIDIA RTX Enterprise Production Branch Driver Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FE Asus Prime B350-PLUS Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders EditionĪorus Z370 Ultra Gaming Desktop DDR4-2666 0 v1.0ġ500X Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FE Asus Prime B350-PLUS Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition Asus Prime B350-PLUS Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition Asus Crosshair VI Hero Multi-Projection, VR Ready, G-SYNC, Vulkan, Multi Monitorġ200 Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FE Asus Prime B350-PLUS This means that the Max-Q GTX 1050 Ti is also suited for thin and light laptops.Īpp Acceleration, PowerPlay, PowerTune, ZeroCore, PCI Express 3.0 x16, max. The power consumption of the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with Max-Q design is rated at 40 to 46 Watt and therefore a lot lower than a regular GTX 1050 Ti for laptops (53 Watt).
Therefore, the GPU is most suited for Full HD and high quality settings for games of 2016. Nvidia states that the Max-Q variant should be about 10 to 15% slower than a regular GTX 1050 Ti for laptops.
The performance of the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti can vary quite a lot depending on the cooling performance of the laptop. A full list of improvements and the new Pascal desktop GPUs is available in our dedicated Pascal architecture article. The GP107 chip is manufactured in a 14 nm FinFET process at Samsung and offers a number of new features, including support for DisplayPort 1.4 (ready), HDMI 2.0b, HDR, Simultaneous Multi-Projection (SMP) as well as improved H.265 video de- and encoding (PlayReady 3.0). The drivers for the Max-Q version were optimized for efficiency (and not performance only for Max-Q models), there are optimized voltage converters for 1V operation, high-end cooling methods, and a 40 dB limit for the fan noise (with clock adjustments to ensure this at all times). The clock is not the only difference compared to the regular GTX 1050 Ti though. Contrary to the faster models, the GTX 1050 uses the GP107 chip, which is manufactured in a 14 nm process at Samsung. The Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti with Max-Q design is a power efficient mainstream GPU for laptops based on the Pascal architecture and was announced in January 2017.
