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 hardware manufacturers and software developers to create ideal VR experiences.

Features

VR SLI - increases the performance of VR Apps by assigning 1 or more GPUs 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.[1]
