Cottage better? Detailed analysis of the magical memory

The development of the computer today, all kinds of hardware products of the homogeneity of the phenomenon more and more serious, not only include the product of the work of materials, and even product packaging can fully achieve the "You have me I have you" realm. Take the video card radiator, highlighting their non-public version of the characteristics of the manufacturers have been playing the acme of excellence, different shapes of the graphics card radiator in succession. All kinds of strange graphics card radiator appearance also verified that the phrase "only can not think of do not" myth! But deep down, the graphics radiator will be less attractive to consumers.

We all know that at present not only the manufacturers have launched overclocking graphics cards, even NV and AMD will often be with the core of the Casupines to a higher frequency as a "new" public version of the product launch. (As long as the graphics card can be stable operation, higher frequency for consumers will undoubtedly bring greater performance space) but, in the frequency of ascension to a certain space, for manufacturers, and then to launch the overclocking version as a selling point is not easy. In order to be able to reflect the difference in the public version of the graphics card, and in the price to obtain a higher profit margins, the major graphics card manufacturers will be locked in the memory.

Big Memory easy to deal with the game copy

In recent years, more and more computer games have appeared in the form of online games. Because online games, whether in the fun of the game, Player participation degree or profit level, are far more than the development of stand-alone games. In this case, whether personal users or Internet café users, in the purchase of graphics cards, most of them to be able to run the network game as a measure of standards.

Super Complex game scene

In the network game, is fastidious is the team cooperation as well as the team (individual) athletics. Players often do is, 35 of people group under the copy Dozen strange, upgrade, take equipment, in the face of a large cluster of strange, we discredit, share the fun of the game. However, the game copy of the scene complex transformation, a large number of monsters, especially when the big Boss appears, the graphics card rendering ability requirements are stronger. At this point if the memory capacity of the bottleneck, it is bound to affect the game atmosphere.

More open Demo

Especially for now, a variety of 3D online games are very popular, more open online game mode, has long been the first choice for most games. The most important thing is the video card data processing capacity, and at this time the memory capacity of the game is the key to restrict the experience. In particular, now the display resolution constantly improve the situation, memory capacity has become more than a measure of the important index of online games.

2GB Video Memory is king

But now the main market in the game graphics card (gts450\hd6770\gtx550ti, and so on) the memory capacity, almost all of the exclusively onboard 512MB video memory, up to 1GB video memory. Such memory capacity if a single open online games can cope with more open words it seems a bit powerless. For ordinary users, a video card core performance, to meet the needs of network games, but because of the lack of memory capacity, forced to buy a higher price of the graphics card, which seems a bit too unreasonable.

3D game, different resolution and quality settings produced by the texture data is very large, in the use of high resolution, full screen anti-aliasing, the filter of the opposite sex and HDR, super large texture data will occupy a large amount of memory space, if the texture cache is not enough, or to empty the memory after continuing to load data, Either the call to slow system memory as the video memory, regardless of the 3D performance will have a significant impact, so the use of 2GB video memory to the ultimate quality has a positive help.

The effect of lighting in the game

In addition, today's game screen for the more sophisticated, a variety of game effects (lighting, shadow, texture, smoke) The rise of the graphics card also put forward a new requirement. In the face of higher hardware requirements of the game, if the memory capacity of the shortage, will inevitably have a serious impact on the game experience. Can you imagine the game because of the lack of memory capacity, and can not open more special effects of the awkward state? Can you feel, because the memory capacity of the bottleneck, resulting in the game speed down, computer card machine embarrassing situation?

So choose a large video card memory capacity, it is a good solution. Dual-sensitive graphics cards as a well-known card manufacturers in the 2GB video graphics card, has a prominent performance. Its variety of large-capacity graphics cards to ultra-low prices, excellent performance, ultra-high price, well received by the majority of game users. For our consumers, we have to spend the same price to get more performance.

PS: The author inquires the same (display the core of the same) graphics card price, found that the dual-sensitive video graphics card than some of the 512MB graphics memory version of the cheaper.

Easy to play high resolution 3 screen/3d extraordinary experience

At present, most users, in the choice of graphics card, still stay in the single stage. In the case of a single video card number, memory capacity is insufficient, want to deal with the game of high resolution + anti-aliasing and other special effects, often will cause the memory capacity of the stretched.

Super Large resolution display

With the price of LCD panels falling, large-screen displays are also beginning to fall into ordinary people's homes. The use of high-resolution displays allows many programs to operate at higher quality. And the increase in the resolution of the monitor and the continuous growth of the data requirements, also require a greater memory to protect.

Practical Multi-screen application

In addition, the three-screen and 3D technology development, but also on the performance of the graphics card has put forward new requirements. The bottleneck of this requirement depends a great part on how much memory you have. For example, in a three-screen state, the display resolution reached (1920x1080) X3 Super Advanced. At such a high resolution, there is no large capacity of memory support, obviously the force does not from the "core".

3D Technology

The same 3D technology development, bring the visual experience further promotion, but because in the unit time, the graphics card needs to deal with the data suddenly rise (generally twice times), the burden of video memory will increase instantly, obviously 2GB video graphics card In this respect has the role can not be ignored.

Upgrade does not increase double sensitive 2GB maximum value

With the display chip processing power is becoming more and more powerful, especially now large 3D games and professional rendering needs temporary storage of more and more data, the required memory capacity is more and more large, memory capacity to a certain extent will affect the performance of the graphics card. For example, when the display core is strong enough to have a smaller memory capacity, but there is a large number of large texture map data need to be stored, if the memory capacity is not enough to store the data, then the display core at some time only idle to wait for these data processing, which affects the display core performance of the play, This also affects the performance of the graphics card.

Super Large Memory capacity

The need for video memory also has an important determinant, that is the processing power of the GPU. Different levels of GPU, graphics generation capacity, rendering ability, data throughput capacity is different, the demand for video memory is naturally different. It is worth noting that the larger memory capacity does not necessarily mean that the higher the performance of the graphics card, because the three elements to determine the performance of the graphics card is its use of the display chip, followed by the video memory bandwidth (this depends on the memory bit width and memory frequency), the last is the memory capacity.

Good horse with good saddle and GPU with video memory

A video card should be equipped with how much memory capacity is appropriate by its use of the display chip determined, that is to say, the video memory capacity should match the performance of the display core to be reasonable, the higher the performance of the chip because of the higher processing capacity of the memory capacity should be larger, And the low performance of the display chip equipped with large capacity of video memory for its performance is also unintentional, on the contrary will bring the cost of graphics card purchase.
