Graphics power thanks to artificial intelligence: NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 30 series is this strong

A potent graphics card is needed for gaming current games or for creative work with video editing programs. The RTX-30 series from NVIDIA offers everything to master these tasks. This is made possible by the second-generation RTX architecture and innovative AI features.

One of the most important features of the series is ray tracing, which is the next evolutionary step in realism and graphics in video games. The technology allows the GPU to calculate and display selected light rays and their interaction with the environment. The result is impressive: Realistic light incidence, cross-fades, reflections and shadows let the interactive game world shine in new splendor.

Ray tracing is visually impressive, but also very performance-hungry. However, you don't have to worry about the performance: RTX graphics cards offer a targeted performance boost for your games thanks to DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling). The upscaling technology enables your system to calculate a game in a lower resolution and then upscale it. RTX cards use an AI algorithm that makes sure you don't notice any difference and always enjoy the best performance: You increase the frame rate and get nice, sharp images. Ray tracing and ultra-high resolution are no problem even on weaker systems.

But NVIDIA's AI technology does not only improve the graphics, but also your system latency: Fans of fast competitive games like Counter-Strike, League of Legends or Fortnite will benefit from NVIVIA Reflex. This feature can reduce latency to less than 25 milliseconds through a combination of GPU and gaming optimizations.

A graphics card from the GeForce RTX 30 series is not only a good choice for gamers: Thanks to GPU acceleration, real-time renderings for complex designs or simulations can be created without problems - no matter if in an image editing app or in video editing.

On the other hand, those who work a lot in the home office or on the road should take a closer look at the NVIDIA Broadcast app. Here, an artificial intelligence removes distracting audio noise and room echoes during a call or online lecture. The webcam also benefits from this: Image noise can also be removed automatically.

Since each model of the ACER Nitro 5 uses a GeForce graphics card from the RTX-30 series, you have many features for different applications.
