    Microsoft details Windows 10’s new GPU scheduling feature


    Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduling, which was introduced in the Windows 10 May 2020 Update, recently received driver support from Nvidia and AMD. Intel also confirmed that they are working on new WDDM 2.7-based drivers to enable Windows 10’s new performance-boosting feature.

    With the release of WDDM 1.0, Microsoft enabled support for the GPU scheduler, a piece of software that basically assigns tasks to the GPU. GPU scheduler has always relied on the CPU as a high-priority thread to coordinate and schedule the work of various applications.

    Microsoft has significantly enhanced the GPU scheduler with support for additional features, but the CPU intensive behaviour of the scheduler has remained unchanged and this approach introduces latency for the “work to reach the GPU”.

    While the buffering of GPU commands ensure good CPU-GPU execution parallelism, the side effect of this approach is increased latency or user input lag. For example, when the CPU is under heavy load, a few frames would be behind your inputs as the CPU registers user inputs a frame before the GPU is able to render it.

    This is not noticable on high-end CPUs since the GPU frames isn’t the most demanding task for your processing unit.

    “User input is picked up by the CPU during “frame N+1” but is not rendered by the GPU until the following frame,” Microsoft noted.

    With hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling, Windows 10 can now pass memory management control to a dedicated GPU-based scheduling processor, which should theoretically free up the CPU a little and reduce the input lag.

    The hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling may prove useful when gaming on low and mid-tier CPUs.

    According to Microsoft, hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling should also reduce the overhead of GPU scheduling and modernize a fundamental pillar of the graphics subsystem to set the “stage for things to come”.

    However, for now, users may not notice any significant improvements after enabling the feature.

    If you want to dive in yourself and test the hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling, here’s what you need to do:


    After upgrading to Windows 10 version 2004 and compatible drivers, head to System > Display > Graphics Settings and enable the “hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling” option, and restart your PC.

    Two major Windows 10 updates scheduled for 2017

    It may come as no surprise, but Microsoft won't release another major update for Windows 10 in 2016. The good news is you can expect two big updates to Microsoft’s latest operating system in 2017.

    Microsoft let the information slip in a TechNet blog post published earlier in the week. “Windows 10, version 1607 is our third Windows 10 feature update released,” Microsoft said in the blog post. “Based on feedback from organizations moving to Windows 10, this will be our last feature update for 2016, with two additional feature updates expected in 2017.”

    The blog post appears to confirm reports from the Windows rumor mill about the timing of the next two updates for Windows 10. The first update, dubbed Redstone 2, is expected to roll out in early 2017 with the second, Redstone 3, landing in the summer or early fall, similar to the timing of the recently released Anniversary Update (previously known as Redstone 1).

    This schedule would put Microsoft back on a two updates per year schedule similar to the initial rollout of Windows 10, as Windows Central first pointed out. In 2015, Microsoft released Windows 10 (also known as Threshold) in July and then the November Update(dubbed Threshold 2) three months later.

    This time around, Redstone 2 is expected to roll out in the spring and then Redstone 3 should hit about four to six months later.

    The impact on you at home: Of the two updates, Redstone 2 looks to be the most interesting so far. Not necessarily because of the features, which are believed to be largely things that weren’t ready for the Anniversary Update. The big deal is that the early 2017 update is expected to roll out in concert with new hardware from Microsoft, asZDNet’s Mary Jo Foley first reported back in March.

    Early builds of Redstone 2 are expected to roll out to Windows Insiders in the coming weeks.

    Microsoft signals end of Paint program

    Microsoft has confirmed that it will continue to offer its graphics program Paint.

    In a recent update, it had listed Paint as a feature that would be either removed or no longer developed.

    Paint, renowned for its simplicity, has been part of the Windows operating system since its launch in 1985.

    Microsoft suggested it would not remain on Windows 10 by default but did say it would be available for free on the Windows Store.
