In addition to its graphics and compute capabilities, Tegra K1 delivers breakthrough efficiency. The Kepler GPU at the heart of Tegra K1 is 1.5 times more efficient than other mobile GPUs. This results in faster performance in the same power envelope and a better experience for gaming and GPU-accelerated applications.
Kepler – first introduced in desktop and notebook systems, and later brought to workstations and supercomputers – is the world’s fastest and most energy-efficient GPU architecture. Tens of millions of Kepler-based graphics cards and systems have been shipped, including the GeForce GTX 780 Ti.
“Kepler powers all 10 of the world’s most energy-efficient supercomputers,” said Linley Gwennap of the Linley Group. “By scaling this technology down, NVIDIA has set the new standard for what’s possible in mobile devices.”
