Amd RX 5000 Series is the first to support PCIe 4.0 in the field of graphics card, and NVIDIA's new generation ampere architecture also supports it. However, at present, there are only A100 computing cards, and RTX 30 series game cards will have to wait a few days.

Now?NVIDIA's first pcie4.0 consumer game card has been released. It's geforce mx450 for lightweight laptops!

Although the specifications and performance of NVIDIA MX series are not very good, they have always been favored by OEM manufacturers. After all, they are independent graphics cards, and they can be regarded as a new generation of products after packaging, which is quite bluffing.

It may be due to the growing threat of Intel and AMD core display performance, and the pace of NVIDIA MX series upgrading is also faster and faster. We should know that the interval between mx100 and mx200 series is one year and nine months, and there is only one year between mx200 and MX300 series. Now we have seen MX400 Series in the past half a year.

In terms of specifications,The biggest change of mx450 is to officially support pci4.0, but this obviously has no practical effect on performance improvement. Instead, it is in line with Intel's upcoming tiger Lake 11 generation core processor, which will also be Intel's first consumer grade pci4.0 product.

At the same time,MX450 can choose a new generation of GDDR6. in addition to traditional GDDR5, in memorySo far, NVIDIA graphics card has entered the era of gddr6 from desktop to notebook, from high-end to low-end.

NVIDIA did not disclose the specific architecture, core and number of stream processors of the mx450Probably, it will eventually be upgraded to Turing architecture, using the entry-level tu117 core, which is expected to provide 896 stream processors, catching up with 1024 of GTX 1650 Series in game books.

MX350, by contrast, is the GP107 core of the Pascal architecture, with 768 stream processors.

In terms of other specifications, mx450 supports CUDA technology, Optimus technology, GPU boost technology, game ready driverDX12(Feature Level 12_1)、OpenGL 4.6、Vukan 1.2、OpenCL 1.2。

Interestingly, NVIDIA did not give any performance indicators of mx450 this time, neither compared with the previous generation, nor bullied Intel Core display.
