Migrating to Windows 10 is inevitable for keeping pace with modern demands. NVIDIA GRID™ helps you seamlessly transition and make the most of this new operating system resulting in happier, more productive users.
BEFORE AND AFTER GRID
While traditional VDI deployments with Windows 10 can suffer from performance degradation and poor scalability, Windows 10 with graphics acceleration offers a consistent, high-quality experience at a lower cost.
Windows 10 VDI without NVIDIA GRID

Basic User Experience
High CPU utilisation due to increased graphics consumption, resulting to performance degradation
WITHOUT GRID
WITH GRID
High-Quality User Experience
CPU tasks offloaded to the GPU, resulting in a native-PC like experience even with increased demand
Costly CPU Utilisation Requirements
Increased CPU usage leading to lower server density and increased cost per user
WITHOUT GRID
WITH GRID
Efficient Utilisation of CPU
Off-load graphics workloads from the CPU to the GPU for better performance and scalability
Scaled Down Application Functionality
Reduced application feature set or applications simply won't launch

FOUR REASONS WHY YOUR WINDOWS 10 VDI NEEDS GPUs
SATISFY THE NEW NORMAL
GPUs are a minimum requirement for Windows 10 desktop editions3. Even common business applications now need GPU resources to run efficiently.
DELIVER INVESTMENT PROTECTION
The number of applications needing graphics acceleration is on the rise. GPUs will help you keep pace with that growth.
ENHANCE USER EXPERIENCE
Actual customer data provided by Lakeside Software’s SysTrack Community and NVIDIA qualitative testing shows that user experience is higher with discrete GPU than without4.
IMPROVE DENSITY WITH GPUS
GPUs offload encoding and rendering tasks done by the CPU, lowering CPU utilisation by 30% letting you to increase user density and deliver an immersive experience4.
WIN10 IS GRAPHICS INTENSIVE
The percentage of companies that will have started Windows 10 deployment by the end of 20171.
The number of applications that are accelerated by graphics has doubled over the past five years2.
Windows 10 has the highest graphics requirement of any operating system to date, with 32% more graphics consumption than Windows 74.
NVIDIA GRID ENABLES ORGANIZATIONS TO CAPITALISE ON ALL WINDOWS 10 HAS TO OFFER, BREAKING DOWN THE BARRIERS TO THE IDEAL DIGITAL WORKPLACE.
