Howdy Overclockers! Today I bring news of the impending NVIDIA GeForce livestream. On May 6th at 6PM (Pacific Standard Time) the stream will be hosted on the NVIDIA Twitch.tv channel.
There has been no official announcement, but one can presume the event will be directed toward the consumer level Pascal-based GeForce GPU’s in light of their recent announcement for the HPC market.

In 2018, he became one of the owners of the site and can now mostly be found managing the servers and technology that power Overclockers.com.

For those of you out there who are folding for a cure, there is great news coming from Folding@Home and Nvidia. According to the article below Nvidia graphics cards are now CUDA enabled to help crunch the numbers faster. Based on the open-source OpenMMToolkit GPU projects using CUDA-enabled cores (core22) could now boost speeds by 15-30%.
We saw a couple of weeks ago NVIDIA released the GTX 1080 Ti which we had a chance to review. From that review we concluded it was a beast of a card, even in its Founders Edition form. Truth be told, its the closest thing to a single GPU solution at 4K resolution with high settings we have, and at a more reasonable price than the Titan XP or Xp or… whatever the new one is called. As with nearly every GPU released, the AIB’s get in the game giving us their take. MSI sent us the GTX 1080 Ti Gaming X 11G to review. They have updated their Twin Frozr cooling solution as well as better goodies on the PCB to deliver a quieter and better performing version of the FE 1080 Ti. Read on below to see how it shapes up!
Nvidia has released WHQL-certified drivers including support for the new GTX480 and GTX470 graphics cards. Products are still unavailable but should hit the shelves this week.
