Core clock speed	920 MHz	no data
Boost clock speed	no data	1800 MHz
Number of transistors	5,000 million	no data
Manufacturing process technology	28 nm	10 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	400 Watt	28 Watt
Texture fill rate	103.0	43.20
Floating-point performance	3,297 gflops	no data

Form factor & compatibility

Information on FirePro W7100 and Arc Graphics 48EU Mobile compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop video cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility). For notebook video cards it's notebook size, connection slot and bus, if the video card is inserted into a slot instead of being soldered to the notebook motherboard.

Bus support	PCIe 3.0	no data
Interface	PCIe 3.0 x16	Ring Bus
Length	241 mm	no data
Width	1-slot	no data
Form factor	full height / full length	no data
Supplementary power connectors	1x 6-pin	no data

VRAM capacity and type

Parameters of VRAM installed: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Integrated GPUs have no dedicated video RAM and use a shared part of system RAM.

Memory type	GDDR5	System Shared
Maximum RAM amount	8 GB	System Shared
Memory bus width	256 Bit	System Shared
Memory clock speed	5000 MHz	System Shared
Memory bandwidth	160 GB/s	no data

Connectivity and outputs

Types and number of video connectors present on the reviewed GPUs. As a rule, data in this section is precise only for desktop reference ones (so-called Founders Edition for NVIDIA chips). OEM manufacturers may change the number and type of output ports, while for notebook cards availability of certain video outputs ports depends on the laptop model rather than on the card itself.

Display Connectors	4x DisplayPort	Portable Device Dependent
