Speaking of graphics card optimization, for a long time among PC players have been circulating the "A card battle future, N card negative optimization" ridicule, NVIDIA founder Huang Jenxun has been sprayed many times because of this problem, but is N card negative optimization real? Then let's test it out.
Overseas video self-media Testing Games, which has more than 400,000 fans, is also very concerned about this problem, and every once in a while it has to test the performance of NVIDIA graphics cards under the new and old drivers, and now the 2022 version of the driver test results are out, let's take a look.
Their comparison of graphics cards is GTX 1060, the driver is 6 years ago GeForce 368.81, compared to the current GeForce 511.79, the time interval is 6 years, the graphics card is also more representative, and the comparison of games has 8 models, is also a more popular choice, there are stand-alone and online games.
The Russian media summed up a result, 7 of the 8 games have the same or slightly increased performance, only the Minecraft (Minecraft) game has declined a little.
However, in the "Dying Light2" game, the performance of the GTX 1060 graphics card has risen sharply after 6 years, from 23fps to 35fps, which may be related to the fact that the game is newer, the previous graphics card driver is not optimized, and the performance is not very good.
Overall, the N card negative optimization of this thing can be debunked, several tests can not see that the previous NVIDIA graphics card has an official deliberate performance reduction situation, Lao Huang was wronged in this regard.
