What does CUDA mean?
CUDA is a short form for Compute Unified Device Architecture. Developed by NVIDIA, CUDA is a parallel platform for computing and programming. It improves the computer's performance by using the potential of the graphics processing unit (GPU). As a powerful platform, CUDA grants a direct entry to the parallel computational elements and virtual instruction set of the CPU.
The broad application of the CUDA
Thousands of computer applications adopt CUDA for their reliability and robustness. It currently has more than 500 million GPUs enabled by CUDA. These GPUs work in computing clusters, notebooks, workstations, and other devices. A lot of numerous companies like MathWorks, Autodesk, Adobe, ANSYS, as well as Wolfram Research currently make use of this technology to utilize the reliable power of the GPU.
What is CUDA capable of doing?
With the advancement of the computing display card, the GPU's performance becomes increasingly powerful and tends to go beyond the CPU's performance in certain areas. Therefore, you would be underutilizing your GPU if you merely use this for the processing of images only. Therefore, NVIDIA launched the technology known as CUDA. This technology is known to expand the GPU functions considerably.
Ever since its introduction, the capabilities of CUDA made a great impression on AceThinker Studio. The programmers we have recreated our products to become compatible with CUDA. This led to a tremendous improvement in video decoding and encoding performance. Users can get a remarkable speed of conversion on their computers if their GPU gets powered with CUDA.
Like an application that is potentially tested by our in-house programmers, the conversion rate of this NVIDIA® CUDA™ technology application is about six times faster than the previous software. The picture below captures in detail every one of the data.
What does NVIDIA NVENC mean?
NVIDIA NVENC is a separate technology for encoding videos that NVIDIA created besides CUDA. NVIDIA NVENC is known for its power and reliability. It got launched in March of 2012, along with the GeForce 600 series, which runs on Kepler. The tool uses the graphic card from NVIDIA instead of CPU to perform its streaming functions. If they use a unique hardware program for their decoding and encoding functions, the core of the CUDA and the system CPU can freely operate most other system compute-intensive functions.
What is the function of NVENC?
Screen recording
You can put NVIDIA NVENC acceleration to use in recording a screen video with a fairly high resolution. The video recorded will retain all the natural quality of images. Additionally, NVENC tends to make use of a minimal CPU power. This helps in the improvement of the recording quality if the graphic card's GPU.
Conversion of videos to different formats
Apart from use in the recording of HD videos, NVENC also helps you to convert your videos into different formats. This will make you convert the intended video very rapidly, using the compression ratio and its high quality.
Performing live Streaming functions
With the NVIDIA NVENC, people can smoothly get Live Stream with an image quality of a high definition. It can use minimal resource usage while providing a video with excellent quality. HD videos can easily be broadcast on standard live streaming websites such as hitbox.tv, twitch.tv, YouTube, etc.
Record your gameplay as you play the game.
Due to the robust nature of the NVENC acceleration suite, people can have excellent gaming experience. Furthermore, this will enable you to record your game in an HD video. The game gets recorded as it is played. Moreover, during your recording, the gaming experience of the player will not be affected.
