Premium Windows 7 Experience
Graphics processing units (GPUs) are an essential element of
today’s PCs, enabling more visual and more interactive
experiences. As a leader in visual computing and the inventor of
the GeForce GPU, NVIDIA worked closely with Microsoft on the
development of Windows 7 to ensure that its GPUs take full
advantage of the great new features and functionality. If you use
your PC to enhance photos, watch or edit videos, play games, or
if you simply desire a fast and efficient graphical interface,
NVIDIA GPUs will surely delight your senses and offer a
premium experience for Windows 7.
