Pros & cons summary

Performance score	1.55	1.66
Recency	11 October 2010	24 April 2012
Chip lithography	40 nm	28 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	49 Watt	50 Watt

GT 430 has 2% lower power consumption.

GT 630 OEM, on the other hand, has a 7.1% higher aggregate performance score, an age advantage of 1 year, and a 42.9% more advanced lithography process.

Given the minimal performance differences, no clear winner can be declared between GeForce GT 430 and GeForce GT 630 OEM.
