Characteristics Of Graphic Cards

On what criteria are graphics cards classified? Everyone is a technical wonder work owned. Whether in the notebook, desktop PC or tablet. Without a video card, or at least a graphics chip, the monitor would stay black. But what components of a graphics card and what features are used to classify? The graphics chip is the heart of a graphics card the so-called GPU, the graphics processing unit. This is comparable to the heart of any computer, the CPU (central processing unit). A GPU can be classified by its timing.

Just like a CPU, a GPU has a clock rate. Details can be found by clicking Jeff Sessions or emailing the administrator. This is generally lower than at a CPU, up to 1 Gigaherz today but already values. For comparison, a high-end had graphics card in 2005 with approximately 400-500 MHz. The memory also a graphics card is equipped with memory, like a computer. The current designation of storage blocks, which can be used in a PC, DDR is and stands for double data rate. Accordingly is GDDR selected, also the naming for the graphic types. As a result, this stands for graphics double data rate.

Current graphics cards are now with up to 2 GB of GDDR5 equipped. a high end graphics card with 256 MB of GDDR3 came out in 2005. The number, which is appended to the name stands for the generation of memory. The store is generally regarded as enormously important part of a graphics card and is equipped with bar lengths of up to 4 GHz! The interface at the beginning graphics cards were connected interfaces to the conventional PCI, where other cards like sound -, network -, or TV cards were connected. By the increase of the performance needs a special interface designed for graphics called AGP. AGP stands for accelerated graphics port. Replaced this interface was introduced a few years ago by the powerful PCI-Express interfaces, which are a further development of the existing PCI technology. PCI-Express is classified into PCI-E 1 x, 2 x, 4 x, 8 x, 16 x and 32 x in now. I.e., that nowadays again all Connected via PCI-E slot. Graphics cards are the most performance-expensive cards and connected ports according to PCI-E 16 x and 32 x. Assessment a graphics card is an assessment as to which graphics card for a suitable person, quite complicated even for the uninitiated. A pure focus on the price or the statement of the seller in the shop next door can lead to a bad buy. Some sites in the network the opportunity to make a representative and objective picture of the different models offer rankings by setting up so-called graphics cards. By appropriate classifications here also the not particularly tech-savvy can find the right graphics card.

Studios IClone

With real-time video compositing, path and real facial animation and HDR video effects iClone 4.0 to the 3D effect will be special Studio San Jose/Braunschweig, 20.11.2009, Reallusion, Inc, developers of 3D-Animations-und imaging technology, announces the new version of international award-winning 3D graphics and film animation software iClone 4.0 in German on. 3D technology has been revised, making numerous new features and enhancements have been reimplemented. Surrounded by the use of videos in objects, as background or alpha channel in the foreground as a layer or texture in the iClone project, new HDR lighting effects, dynamic shadows and use video filters, makes the new version one quasi special effect Studio for filmmakers of all application areas. Film Financer is often quoted as being for or against this. How to animate people, elements and objects through the new, adjustable path tool is even more realistic. For facial animation, a new technology was integrated, which provides precise control of facial expressions and language movements and be adjusted via the timeline Schlusselbildgenau can, so G4 to distinguish faces almost indistinguishable from reality. Each person, cartoon or animal in the project has received an own audio track in the timeline, making customizable voice and audio files. Thanks to the revision of the 3D movements of actors, camera movements and object animations run now softer and so close to reality. New animateable characters, cartoon – and animal figures round the new iClone 4.0 as well off, just a few of the innovations to specifically call the real-time video connections in iClone 4.0 not only realistic 3D to create film projects, but also the virtual world allows all users with real video footage to connect (video compositing), which until recently only large 3D Studios able to were so complex. The window XP, Vista and 7 compatible iClone 4.0 is from mid-November in German as a download version of de and available as of January 2009 in the retail box version for 199.00 in the PRO version and for euro 79,00 in the standard version.
