TurboCache TechnologyBy allowing the graphics processing unit (GPU) to share the capacity and bandwidth of dedicated video memory and dynamically available system memory, TurboCache turbocharges performance and provides larger total graphics memory.
Key features of the TurboCache architecture:
* Patented hardware and software technologies that render directly to system memory.
* A TurboCache Manager (TCM), which dynamically allocates memory for maximum system performance.
* Intelligent software algorithms that maximize application performance.
* Bidirectional PCI Express® bandwidth, in conjunction with TurboCache architecture, which improves graphics price/performance. -
