Detailed specifications

General performance parameters such as number of shaders, GPU core base clock and boost clock speeds, manufacturing process, texturing and calculation speed. These parameters indirectly speak of performance, but for precise assessment you have to consider their benchmark and gaming test results. Note that power consumption of some graphics cards can well exceed their nominal TDP, especially when overclocked.

Core clock speed	900 MHz	1500 MHz
Boost clock speed	no data	3000 MHz
Number of transistors	1,270 million	25,390 million
Manufacturing process technology	28 nm	4 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	45 Watt	54 Watt (35 - 54 Watt TGP)
Texture fill rate	28.80	139.2
Floating-point performance	691.2 gflops	no data

Form factor & compatibility

Information on GeForce GT 650M Mac Edition and Radeon 780M 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.

Interface	PCIe 3.0 x16	PCIe 4.0 x8
Supplementary power connectors	no data	None

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	512 MB	System Shared
Memory bus width	128 Bit	System Shared
Memory clock speed	5016 MHz	System Shared
Memory bandwidth	80.26 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.
