GTC and GDC - A Great Combination

With the Game Developers Conference (GDC) so close to NVIDIA’s own GPU Technology Conference (GTC), we are often asked which event is better to attend. The answer is that both venues offer a unique opportunity to engage with NVIDIA graphics and game engineers, but each has several unique presentations that give you in-depth information on NVIDIA tools and hardware. Two of our guest presenters, Valve and Gearbox, have agreed to speak on the same topic at both events, but all other presentations are completely unique. Here’s our at-a-glance schedule for the main presentation days at both conferences:

GPU Technology Conference (GTC) Game Development Track, March 21st San Jose Convention Center, San Jose, CA	Game Developers Conference NVIDIA Sponsored Sessions, March 28th Moscone Center, San Francisco, CA
