NVIDIA continues to add more performance to its RTX AI PCs with features such as NVFP4 and further AI/RTX optimizations.
NVIDIA RTX PCs Now Enjoy Even More AI & Creator Performance With Latest NVFP4 Support, & More
NVIDIA has been accelerating its RTX AI PCs with some major performance upgrades over the years. Back in 2023, NVIDIA introduced TensorRT-LLM for Windows 11, offering a 5x boost, and that was followed by a 3x uplift next year for AI workloads. The company also offers a wide range of AI-based solutions for its RTX platforms. All of these updates have truly made RTX the "Premium" AI PC platform.
This year, NVIDIA is starting with another major update for RTX AI PCs, which it has labeled as a "Free RTX AI Performance Upgrade. There are two parts of this update, first is faster LLM performance, offering up to 40% higher performance in LLMs such as GPT-OSS, Nemotron Nano V2, and Sque 3 308.
The second part enables native NVFP4 support in ComfyUI Flux.1, Flux.2, and Quen Image. This yields up to a 4.6x gain in performance.
Even more interesting is that the new native NVFP4/NVFP8 support not only lands in up to 60% smaller LLMs, but also offloads the work to system memory, freeing up graphics resources. The new model also reduces VRAM usage significantly versus the previous BF16 instructions.
In addition to these, NVIDIA is also announcing a new Audio-to-Video model called LTX-2, which is going to be powered by RTX. This is the #1 open weights video model on the market right now and offers up to 4K video generation in just 20 seconds. With NVFP8 support, users will be able to see an impressive 2.0x performance gain.
Furthermore, NVIDIA is also bringing Super Resolution support to GenAI Videos with RTX Video. This update lands on ComfyUI in February and upscales 720p GenAI videos to 4K, offering better quality & detail. The whole process of generating a video on the RTX AI PC platform with NVFP8 support, & then doing Super Res takes 3 minutes for a 4K 10 sec video versus the older method, which took 15 minutes.
Lastly, NVIDIA is bringing AI Video Search to Nexa Hyperlink. With this update, users will be able to get an RTX-optimized private search for videos, iamges and documents. Overall, these are a good list of updates for RTX AI PC owners who keep getting free performance and better optimizations for the latest in AI.
