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	675 MHz	1046 MHz
Number of transistors	no data	915 million
Manufacturing process technology	no data	28 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	no data	49 Watt
Texture fill rate	no data	33.47
Floating-point performance	no data	803.3 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).

Interface	no data	PCIe 2.0 x8
Length	no data	145 mm
Width	no data	1-slot
