Every digital creative needs a machine that will not only match their current requirements, but give them the option to push boundaries and extend their creativity. In recent years NVIDIA have been instrumental in bringing their next-generation GPU hardware to the laptop market. This means professionals, hobbyists and students alike are no longer restricted to purchasing bulky desktop machines but instead can benefit from lightning fast hardware in much smaller and more portable devices.
Designers, video editors, 3d artists, photographers, and illustrators represent only a small segment of this increasingly diverse market. Creators demand ultra fast graphics capabilities, visually perfect displays, and machines that are not only portable but deliver what is required on even the most demanding of projects.
NVIDIA’s answer is the NVIDIA Studio laptop range. These systems are designed to give designers and artists the best experience in all fields including graphic design, photography, and video editing.
3D artists, visualisers, and game designers amongst others benefit from GeForce RTX 40-series GPUs that support ray-tracing, path-tracing, and ray-reconstruction. RTX technology is the most advanced platform for ray tracing and AI technologies and is revolutionising what is possible with computer graphics. Renderers such as V-Ray, Arnold, and Blender Cycles take advantage of Ada Lovelace architecture to unleash the full glory of ray tracing, which brings 3d scenes to life with realistic lighting. Also optimised for Adobe Creative Cloud, NVIDIA Studio laptops work smarter with AI-accelerated features, and are even capable of editing up to 4K video in real-time.
