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	576 MHz	640 MHz
Number of transistors	1508 Million	585 million
Manufacturing process technology	55 nm	40 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	150 Watt	40 Watt
Texture fill rate	no data	10.24
Floating-point performance	no data	0.2458 gflops

Form factor & 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).
