NVIDIA started GeForce Go 7800 GTX sales 29 September 2005. This is a G7x architecture notebook card based on 110 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at office use. 512 MB of GDDR3 memory clocked at 1.1 GHz are supplied, and together with 256 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 35.2 GB/s.

Compatibility-wise, this is card attached via PCIe 1.0 x16 interface. Power consumption is at 65 Watt.

It provides poor gaming and benchmark performance at 0.54% of a leader's which is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
