Technical specs

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	550 MHz	no data
Number of transistors	302 million	no data
Manufacturing process technology	40 nm	7 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	35 Watt	7 Watt
Texture fill rate	13.20	no data

Size and compatibility

Information on Playstation 3 RSX 40nm and Qualcomm Adreno 680 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.
