I was wondering how many of the features from page 2 of the Tesla fact sheet (except those in topic description) were also shared by the GTX line?
Specifically:
-
NVIDIA PARALLEL DATACACHE
Accelerates algorithms such as physics solvers, ray-tracing, and sparse matrix multiplication where data addresses are not known beforehand. This includes a configurable L1 cache per Streaming Multiprocessor block and a unified L2 cache for all of the processor cores. -
NVIDIA GIGATHREAD ENGINE
Maximizes the throughput by faster context switching that is 10X faster than previous architecture, concurrent kernel execution, and improved thread block scheduling. -
ASYNCHRONOUS TRANSFER
Turbocharges system performance by transferring data over the PCIe bus while the computing cores are crunching other data. Even applications with heavy data-transfer requirements, such as seismic processing, can maximize the computing efficiency by transferring data to local memory before it is needed.
