NVIDIA: GeForce RTX is not just for playing games

NVIDIA at CES 2019 in addition to introducing the GeForce RTX 2060, also announced several other things by Jen-Hsun Huang, CEO, and co-founder of NVIDIA. An interesting one, he mentioned, that NVIDIA did not want to make their new product the GeForce RTX, a perfect graphics card to play games. However, they want the GeForce RTX to be the perfect graphics card for gamers. Why?



NVIDIA immediately explained the reason behind their statement. In the current era, gamers are no longer just playing games. They have more activities than just playing games, but they are still not too far from the game world. Some activities such as creating and processing content, streaming, and enjoying VR also began and are increasingly being done by gamers.



Seeing this, NVIDIA, as mentioned by Jen-Hsun Huang, realizes that the graphics card made by them must also be able to offer more things for gamers, to support these activities. Because of that, they tried to show what made the GeForce RTX had more value than just to accompany playing games. New things are expected to make the GeForce RTX a "perfect" graphics card for gamers' activities with their PC.



As support for things that can add value to a GeForce RTX for gamers, NVIDIA works with several parties to provide accelerated support to enhance the gamers experience when they use multiple applications. Benefits of accelerating More components in the GeForce RTX GPU offered by NVIDIA

  • RED video editing, where NVIDIA provides support for video processing acceleration up to the high resolution, such as 6K or 8K, with RED cameras
  • OBS for streaming professional classes, where with just one PC, gamers can play games while streaming with special acceleration from the GeForce RTX, comfortably in high quality
  • Turing VRWorks was also prepared, in collaboration with HTC Vive, to optimize the experience of enjoying content at the HTC VIve HMD
These things are NVIDIA's first step to support gamers to get a "perfect" graphics card not only to play games. Looking ahead, it seems NVIDIA plans to add a variety of other support, with the acceleration that can be offered by their new GeForce RTX GPU.
