[[GameWorks VR | [[VRWorks]], formerly known as '''GameWorks VR''', is a suite of [[virtual reality]] technologies developed by [[Nvidia]] to tackle high-performance VR rendering. It contains a set of APIs, libraries and features that enable both engine and [[HMD]] developers to create the ideal [[VR]] experiences. | ||

[[VR SLI]] increases the performance of [[VR Apps]] by assigning 1 or more [[GPU]]s to each eye when [[stereo rendering]] (creating a different image for each eye). Because VR utilizes 2 independent views, developers can parallax the rendering across 2 different GPUs then combine the images into a single frame in the [[HMD]]. It allows the app to have higher [[fps]] or graphical settings. Additionally, VR SLI API allows developers to scale the entire system to more than 2 GPUs. Developers can split up the rendering anyway they want across any number of GPUs they desire.<ref name="GameWorks_VR_Site">https://developer.nvidia.com/virtual-reality-development</ref> | [[VR SLI]] increases the performance of [[VR Apps]] by assigning 1 or more [[GPU]]s to each eye when [[stereo rendering]] (creating a different image for each eye).
