Core clock speed	775 MHz	874 MHz
Number of transistors	585 million	292 million
Manufacturing process technology	28 nm	40 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	15 Watt	29 Watt
Texture fill rate	12.40	6.992
Floating-point performance	297.6 gflops	167.8 gflops

Size and compatibility

Information on compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop graphics cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility).

Interface	PCIe 2.0 x16	PCIe 2.0 x16
Length	no data	168 mm
Width	no data	1-slot
Supplementary power connectors	no data	None

Memory

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

Memory type	DDR3	DDR3
Maximum RAM amount	1 GB	1 GB
Memory bus width	64 Bit	64 Bit
Memory clock speed	1800 MHz	1650 MHz
Memory bandwidth	14.4 GB/s	13.2 GB/s

Video outputs and ports

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	No outputs	1x DVI, 1x HDMI
HDMI	no data	+
