It's for computing advanced mathematics, not DirectX/OpenGL. It can run 3D graphics, but only enough to display graphs of the results of the computation on screen.
I doubt it would play games it would run them pretty well with no lag buuuuuut there will be lots of graphical glitches because it's not a GPU for games XD
Just to clear things up... Yes it is a graphics card. NO It will not beat out all other GPUs on the market, this is a card with a specialized chip for Compute calculations for computational power. It does not render graphics faster, and actually will run with lower FPS on average compared to any gaming card, as they are not built to output images at high rates. Also NO, it will surprisingly not farm bitcoin faster than amd/ati cards unless u have the S2070, which barely competes with a 6990.
@Ps3Reviews40 No, only for CUDA and OpenCL based applications like Arion Render, iRay (Mental Ray 3.8), PhisiX (too much just for it) or intense scientific computing. I'm actually into computer graphics and willing to buy it.
For all the noobs who dont get it.. its a processor.. not a graphics card.. but i still wounder if you threw it in a system with a gtx 580 and an i7 990x what would happen..
@stealthyfrog you would get arrested for creating a nuclear bomb and taken in by the cia, and also nasa would steal it from you and use it on space shuttles
i wish i could get a "xenon" processor i watch lots of youtube tech videos and so many people talk about them>>> hmm must be like a secret cpu that only higher up geeks can get. lol nah just a joke< seriously people is "ZEE-ON"(xeon)
@1waitandbleed1 is that for my "physx" answer? because you can use this on a regular desktop not just a server, and the cuda implementation can be used for physx... even albert said this could be used for scientist's workstation computers which is a desktop computer.
Will the tesla and quadro cards run GPU intensive softare better than the regular consumer level cards? this has been eating me all week. like i know they are not built for gaming, but you can use them for that right?
FSX FSX On this bay oh yeah 9oh yeah YEAH Baby FSX is my Simulator Game Getting a 580 with 3GB Vram on board Tomorrow on that:) Selling my old i7 860 and GTX 285 1GB Biostar i55 p55 8GB ram pm me for more detail.
Uh oh, if he's talking about the thread manager, that's on-die, it's not separate from the GPU. It's sub-circuitry, not a separate dedicated chip or anything, I don't want to mean just to make sure that if anyone's life dependent on this fact, they ought to know it!
ok I do lots of video editing and architectural design and some gaming, i do have a gtx 580, so if i throw only one of these in, will it make a huge performance difference???
The time has come for Free energy to be revealed ,But some very powerfull ppl don't want you and me to be free from energy costs,Find this technology at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Start the energy revolution!
Okay people, you CANNOT use this for gaming. This lacks any form of video-out connector, so you are not able to connect this card to any form of display.
why don't they start making stuff out of titanium? The possibilities are endless, but I think they want to rip us of our money for as long as they can.
A supercomputer that can calculate EVERYTHING in the universe in less than a goolge search resault is NOT impossible. But that's looking out of the box.
Also, they rather make copper pieces of scrap metal they call technology.
That's what i'm trying to say. This is a very specialized model. It's got a lot of power, but in most cases, most people wont need it.
And still, that's what Nvidia is trying to make us believe.
Indeed, trying to simulate liquid is no childplay and needs a lot of vram and processors. That's where Nvidia comes in. But when you're talking about a scientist who uses adobe suites, a normal I7 will do. Although that's what you can't find in the users manual can you :)
@freestylerstyler true! ; ) I bet you my life that they are going to buy it for gaming and then talk shit because their GT 8800 gives them more frame rate. LOL!
@rysliv I'm 100% sure it's not. I never said it was. I said people are going to buy it thinking it is. They see the nVidia logo and think it's a video card.
@bluetorch13 Yeah i know you didn't say anything, about it being a video card. Just putting it out for others so they don't waste their money if they stopped watching before they showed it has no video ports. This card wouldn't make your computer any faster if you are a extreme gamer anyway, It wouldn't use the Tesla card for it.
Free energy has been here for a while ,But the coverup is very strong,Get a REAL working magnet motor at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Join the energy revolution!
@TheAntman2006 It was meant to save businesses money in computing power. Not to satisfy your need to get the highest frame rate in crysis. I guess you use it to get a high 3D mark vantage score with it but that's about it.
@xboxmodder02 YOU CAN PLAY GAMES WITH THIS CARD! This card was meant to replace a whole wrack of supercomputers and shrink it down to size. This card wasn't meant to get the highest frame rate in crysis. It's a tool not a toy.
@NOOBNUT08 How do you know?Do you own 1?Or have you even tried? I guess not.I guess your just going by what you have read up about it.From what i have been told by a girl i know personally who develops for the PS3 she uses a nvidia tesla pc for developing 3d models on.She also goes ahead and tells me that card runs the latest games just fine .
@xboxmodder02 It has no video output. It can't output video. It's meant to give you more processing power. It's more like putting more CPU's and ram in you computer then adding a GPU. Sure it does help with 3D modeling and very heavy apps but you can't use it a graphics card. And I happen to own one.
@NOOBNUT08 Most users that are Gamers wont be able to harness the true power of this thing, Only video editors. 3D Game modelling and other 3d stuff. Scientific projects. And stuff like that. Gaming takes very little CPU power and almost never uses 100% utilization of the CPU that is if you have a GOOD 4-core cpu, it will be around 20% during gaming
@MBP6705 Really dude It doesn't do anything in games. Like he said its more for 3D modeling video editing and scientific stuff like MRI machines and so fourth. Imagine it like adding another computer inside your computer.
His proposition about giving a workstation to each of the researchers/staff at a company/organization/institute vs a consolidated compute cluster tells me he should stick to reviewing/advertising end-user hardwares.
@jamalakj Because CPUs were designed to be good at serial processing. To gain performance CPUs were built smaller and smaller with higher and higher clock frequencies. Now we are reaching the boundaries of this technology and we have to go into parallel processing to gain more power. GPUs always have been optimized for parallel processing. Each GPU core is much simpler than a cpu core and much worse at serial computation alone.
@ByT3R Not made by Intel, it's made by Nvidia and also the Ati's Hd 5970's architechture isn't designed for GPGPU computing so you can't use it in the same way as a tesla or a Geforce card.
@Nvidiaguides Sorry, my mistake, I meant Nvidia. You can use a 5970 for GPU computing. Nvidia CUDA, ATI Stream. Same principle, different name. Architecture has nothing to do with it, and ATI still gets you faster compute times.
ATI won't run CUDA because it's NVidia proprietary but they run OpenCL which is on a technical level more powerful than CUDA and is just now ramping up to being used in commercial apps. We're talking real time ray traced rendering complete with SSS shaders and caustics at over 100 fps.
It's not a Graphics card (GRAPHICS processing unit), but rather a "GPU" (GENERAL processing unit). It's really just a coincidence that it has a similar form factor to a graphics card and the same acronym...
Ok since it's not for gaming... Why not get 2 of these, and 2 GTX480's, SLI the 480's together, get 12-16 gigs of DDR3 ram, an AMD Phenom II X6 or an I7 Extreme, four solid state drives in Raid 1 setup (atleast 500GB each), a 1500 watt Powersupply, four Blueray drives, A card reader, Water cooling, and a Motherboard to support all of that.
You'll never need a gaming computer ever again and still have the power to do all that Math ^.^
No, because they're encrypted and stored on optical disk, so they take up a lot of space and can't be transferred over networks unless you rip them.
Netbooks can't read them, my laptop can't read more than one at a time, the read speed is pretty slow anyway... It's mostly the fact that it's optical media that bothers me. Also, DVD drives are pretty loud.
@cyborgtroy Well I still like the DVDs and Blu-rays the most. If you buy a Movie on PlayStation Video Store or iTunes you still can't share 'em. Because of the Copyrights Protection or DRM.
@Austin55947 lol these things arent meant for gaming man. They dont have the crazy texture fill rate that gaming cards have, ie the GTX 480. These cards are meant for doing serious math/CAD/imaging work :D

@Nvidiaguides Sorry, my mistake, I meant Nvidia. You can use a 5970 for GPU computing. Nvidia CUDA, ATI Stream. Same principle, different name. Architecture has nothing to do with it, and ATI still gets you faster compute times.

@Nvidiaguides
ATI won't run CUDA because it's NVidia proprietary but they run OpenCL which is on a technical level more powerful than CUDA and is just now ramping up to being used in commercial apps. We're talking real time ray traced rendering complete with SSS shaders and caustics at over 100 fps.

@flipballaz93 I don't think so...

@johnolazabal I believe so, anyone can on Windows XP (the operating system you can get on this) though Windows sucks, just putting it out there.

It's not a Graphics card (GRAPHICS processing unit), but rather a "GPU" (GENERAL processing unit). It's really just a coincidence that it has a similar form factor to a graphics card and the same acronym...

Ok since it's not for gaming... Why not get 2 of these, and 2 GTX480's, SLI the 480's together, get 12-16 gigs of DDR3 ram, an AMD Phenom II X6 or an I7 Extreme, four solid state drives in Raid 1 setup (atleast 500GB each), a 1500 watt Powersupply, four Blueray drives, A card reader, Water cooling, and a Motherboard to support all of that.
You'll never need a gaming computer ever again and still have the power to do all that Math ^.^

@GranKnight87 - No, I just don't watch movies. DVDs were enough of a pain.

@cyborgtroy 0_o? Really, why? Because of the double deeping?
GranKnight87 1 year ago
@GranKnight87 - huh?
No, because they're encrypted and stored on optical disk, so they take up a lot of space and can't be transferred over networks unless you rip them.
Netbooks can't read them, my laptop can't read more than one at a time, the read speed is pretty slow anyway... It's mostly the fact that it's optical media that bothers me. Also, DVD drives are pretty loud.
cyborgtroy 1 year ago
@cyborgtroy Well I still like the DVDs and Blu-rays the most. If you buy a Movie on PlayStation Video Store or iTunes you still can't share 'em. Because of the Copyrights Protection or DRM.
GranKnight87 1 year ago
@GranKnight87 - Well, yeah, iTunes of course sucks even harder.
DVDs are the least crap of all the ways to get movies, but they're still not that good. Which is depressing.
