NVIDIA RTX 2060 Super and 2070 Super review

[ad_1] What makes them special? As we explained when they were announced, the RTX Super cards are basically souped-up versions of NVIDIA’s existing lineup.

Volvo’s self-driving buses and trucks will run on NVIDIA tech

There’s no timetable for when you can expect to see the first fruits of the partnership on a road near you. To some degree, this is about fast-tracking Volvo’s work […]
