Gaming laptops are gaining momentum after Nvidia introduced the Pascal graphics architecture, bringing the performance of mobile GeForce closer to the desktop version the Turing architecture, from desktop GeForce cards to laptop products, more power and ray tracing capability

However, at CES 2021, Nvidia pulled the covers off its new ampere-based laptop GeForce graphics cards: the GeForce RTX 3080, RTX 3070, and RTX 3060 variants, the latter of which will be discussed in detail later As we will discuss, these not only offer the power to push pixels in laptop form, but also promise access to the latest ray tracing and DLSS technologies

Currently, we have seen RTX cards in gaming laptops before But the gaming laptops of 2021 are starting to get even better, thanks to help from the most unlikely place: AMD

AMD, Nvidia's big graphics rival, has unveiled its Ryzen 5000 U-series and H-series laptop processors Combined with the new GeForce RTX 30 series graphics, this will create some really exciting laptops

Nvidia claims that over 70 laptops are expected to feature the new GeForce RTX graphics Prices are also expected to be affordable, starting at $999

Take the Acer Triton 300 SE as an example, this slim gaming laptop offers ample gaming power without the hassle of finding a place to buy an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti (the closest equivalent to the upcoming RTX 3060) and GeForce RTX 3060, providing a fairly easy way to get the RTX 3060

The MSI Stealth 15M is advertised as "the world's thinnest 15-inch gaming laptop," but it also comes with an RTX 3060

And these laptop makers, along with Asus, Razer, Gigabyte, Lenovo, and others, are adding RTX 30 series graphics, often along with AMD's new laptop CPUs, to their range of machines

And both of these laptop markers, along with Asus, Razer, Gigabyte, Lenovo, and others, are adding RTX 30 series graphics to a range of machines, often alongside AMD's new laptop CPUs

Speaking of Asus, the company went a step further and announced the ROG Flow X13, an ultra-portable laptop with a new AMD CPU and GeForce GTX 1650 Priced at $3,000, this is not too far off from some gaming desktops powered by the RTX 3080 and has a lot more flexibility

Even if you are struggling to find a place to buy an Nvidia RTX 3080, these new gaming laptops may be the answer to the ongoing graphics card shortage

Nvidia displayed a lot of GeForce and gaming stuff at CES 2021

We knew Nvidia's GeForce RTX 3060 was coming, but we didn't expect it to undercut its predecessor, the RTX 2060 But at $329, it is the cheapest amperage graphics card Nvidia has, and should appeal to those who want to build a powerful gaming PC for 1440p gaming and 1080p action at ultra-high frame rates, but don't want to empty their bank accounts!

Nvidia touts this as 13 times the performance of the PS5 Also, compared to the GTX 1060, the RTX 3060 has twice the raster performance and 10 times the ray tracing performance; one can only hope that it is more affordable than other cards in the GeForce RTX 30 series lineup

It should be available in late February If you've been waiting for a mainstream RTX card, the GeForce RTX 3060 may be for you

Thanks to more powerful graphics that allow for high frame rates at 1080p resolutions, many gaming laptops are adopting high refresh rate displays And with GeForce RTX GPUs for laptops, you can push 1080p gaming even further As a result, more and more gaming laptops are being equipped with displays with refresh rates of 240 Hz or higher, with the Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 SE achieving 300 Hz

However, the power of GPUs like the GeForce RTX 3070 and RTX 3080 means that at 1080p there is little silicon sweat As a result, we can expect to see more gaming laptops with 1440p displays

Given that 4K is very demanding and arguably overkill for a compact laptop display, 1440p is the sweet spot, providing more visual clarity and enough headroom for the GPU to push high frame rates while It is possible to ensure that Therefore, 2021 will likely be the year of the 1440p high refresh rate gaming laptops, and we are eager to try as many as possible

Given that the PS5 and Xbox Series X both support ray tracing, more games supporting high-end optical rendering technology is not a big surprise And Nvidia has revealed that games like "Five Nights at Freddy's," a horror game set in a shopping mall: Forged In Shadow Torch, will support ray tracing

However, Nvidia's "RTX" terminology also covers deep learning supersampling techniques that use AI techniques to cleverly render games and make them look crisp at high resolutions, but without overtaxing the GPU This is as clever as it is complex, but yields impressive results

And Nvidia has revealed that Call of Duty: Warzone and Square Enix's Outriders can use DLSS

Last year, Nvidia announced GeForce Reflex This, in a nutshell, helps measure and reduce system latency (basically, the time between a click and the time an action appears on the screen) in competitive games

Two very popular competitive multiplayer games, Rainbow Six Siege and Overwatch, support GeForce Reflex But Nvidia also revealed that five new monitors support G-Sync and that the GeForce Reflex Analyzer can be combined with RTX technology to measure input latency and find ways to reduce it

So if you have a new GeForce RTX 30 series graphics card or plan to get a new laptop with the latest RTX technology, we recommend matching it with a new display packed with smart Nvidia technology

Considering all of the above, 2021 is going to be a great year to become a PC gamer or to start playing PC games With all of these technologies and the impressive next generation of games coming out over the next 12 months, Nvidia's CES 2021 event was more than just a big GeForce showcase, it was a vehicle to get the game going this year
