AMD Radeon R9 M290X Crossfire 9 290 9 290 X Crossfire , also known as CrossFireX , is located on the sixth line among the analogues. It is a combination of two powerful video cards R 9 M 290 X and Crossfire .The video card supports UVD3 video decoder for decoding MPEG-4 AVC / H.264, VC-1, MPEG-2, Flash, Multi-View Codec( MVC) and MPEG-4 part 2( DivX, xVid) HD video from AMD GPU.In addition, the M290 series operates using a special technology and can connect up to six monitors simultaneously with Eyefinity if Enduro is inactive. An integrated HD audio processor can transmit audio( TrueHD or DTS Master Audio) via HDMI and DisplayPort ports. In addition, it makes it possible to output audio simultaneously to several devices with a new DDMA function.

5

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 965M SLI

Powerful graphics card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 965 M SLI for notebooks is the fifth line of the rating. It consists of two cards GeForce GTX 965M, built on the 28-nm core GM204 based on Maxwell architecture. The clock speeds for SLI cards correspond to the level of one GTX 965M( 924-1250 MHz).With good drivers, SLI mode almost doubles the graphics performance, compared to a single video card. In this case, the GTX 965M SLI runs faster than one NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M by about 10%.Thus, the bundle GTX 965M SLI is a powerful enough solution to handle even the most demanding games at high settings, AA / AF and / or with a resolution higher than Full HD.

4

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M SLI

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M SLI is on the fourth place among the high-end graphics cards for notebooks. Support for DirectX 11, 28-nm core GK104, Kepler architecture, clock frequency 823 MHz - all this is characteristic of the graphic connection 780M SLI.The Kepler architecture is built according to the standards of 28-nanometer technology, supports PCIe 3.0 and optionally Turbo, which allows to raise the working frequency of the video card theoretically by 15%.Kernel GK104 Kepler offers eight SMX-shader units that operate at a frequency similar to the core. The GTX 780M is active in all eight blocks with 1536 CUDA cores. Video cards on the Kepler architecture can use more shader cores.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 880M SLI

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 880M SLI unlocks the top three graphics cards for notebooks and is a combination of two GeForce GTX 880M.Each graphics has a 28-nm core GK104 on the Kepler architecture. In SLI, each video card operates in AFR mode, processing one frame at a time. The GK104 core Kepler has eight SMX shader units operating at the same clock rate as the core. The GTX 880M has all eight blocks active, so there are 1536 CUDA cores available. The fifth generation PureVideo HD( VP5) video processor is integrated into the GK104 core, which is capable of performing high-definition video decoding hardware. VC1 and MPEG-4 codecs are processed at resolutions up to 1080p, and common MPEG-1/2, MPEG-4 ASP, H.264 and VC1 / WMV9 up to 4K.For the "image in image" function, two streams are decrypted in parallel mode. Also, the encoding module is accessed here via the NVENC API.
