Size and compatibility
Information on GeForce 405M's compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. 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 | PCI-E 2.0 | |
| Interface | PCIe 2.0 x16 |
Memory
Parameters of memory installed on GeForce 405M: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Note that GPUs integrated into processors have no dedicated memory and use a shared part of system RAM instead.
| Memory type | GDDR3, DDR3 | |
| Maximum RAM amount | Up to 512 MB | of 192 (Radeon Instinct MI300X) |
| Memory bus width | 64 Bit | of 8192 (Radeon Instinct MI250X) |
