What is a GPU?
A specialised electrical circuit called a graphics processing unit (GPU) is used to accelerate the processing of images and videos. With recent advancements GPUs are now widely used in a wide range of applications including artificial intelligence scientific simulations and bitcoin mining. Intel and Nvidia are two of the dominant players in the highly competitive GPU market.
Let’s examine the two GPU competitors in more detail.
Distinctions between GPUs made by Nvidia and Intel.
INTEL:
● The features of Intel CPUs include integrated GPUs (like Intel UHD Graphics
and Intel Iris Xe).
● The basic visual ability for multimedia light gaming and daily computer tasks.
● Additional Intel technologies such as Quick Sync Video for encoding and
decoding are integrated with the Unified Architecture.
● Driver Support: It frequently needs fewer updates because it is integrated
directly into Intel’s driver support package.
Nvidia:
● With its GeForce line, Nvidia dominates the market for discrete GPUs targeting
professionals, enthusiasts and gamers.
● High Performance: Designed to tackle intensive computational tasks like deep
learning and artificial intelligence as well as high-end gaming and professional
graphics work.
● Ampere Architecture: The essence of modern architecture is its high
performance and energy efficiency.
● CUDA Toolkit: widely used in scientific computing, AI and deep learning
applications.
