After arriving to desktop back in November last year, NVIDIA have finally released the GeForce 500 GPU series for laptops. Designed to accompany the new 2011 Intel Core processors a.k.a Sandy Bridge, the GPU series is available in five different offerings as opposed to only two models for desktop computers.
The NVIDIA GeForce 500M GPU series are generally divided into two categories:
- Performance: GT 540M, GT 550M and GT 555M.- Mainstream: GT 520M and GT 525M.
As per their desktop cousins, NVIDIA have packed tons of graphics technology into these GPUs for mobile users to enjoy and utilized with their applications such as support for DirectX 11, NVIDIA PhysX and 3DTV Play; together with NVIDIA 3D Vision for performance-oriented models of the GPU series. The NVIDIA Optimus automated power management technology also made a return to the new 500M series; definitely a big plus point for laptop users who are concerned about battery usage.
You can expect to see the new NVIDIA GeForce 500M series GPUs lurking into more than 200 laptop models from leading manufacturers out there throughout this year. For technical specification and further details on the new GPUs, head on to www.nvidia.com.
