Watch the Nvidia GPU Technology Conference livestream

Concurrent with the Game Developers' Conference going on in San Francisco this week, Nvidia also has it's GPU Technology Conference (GTC). There's a lot of overlap between the two, as game developers are often looking for ways to better utilize GPUs as well. Regardless, if you're a fan of black leather jackets and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, the GTC keynote kicks off at 2pm PDT until 4pm.

Jarred's love of computers dates back to the dark ages when his dad brought home a DOS 2.3 PC and he left his C-64 behind. He eventually built his first custom PC in 1990 with a 286 12MHz, only to discover it was already woefully outdated when Wing Commander was released a few months later. He holds a BS in Computer Science from Brigham Young University and has been working as a tech journalist since 2004, writing for AnandTech, Maximum PC, and PC Gamer. From the first S3 Virge '3D decelerators' to today's GPUs, Jarred keeps up with all the latest graphics trends and is the one to ask about game performance.
