Value for money

Performance to price ratio. The higher, the better.

Quadro 410 and NVS 310 have a nearly equal value for money.

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.

Pipelines / CUDA cores	192	48
Core clock speed	706 MHz	523 MHz
Number of transistors	1,270 million	292 million
Manufacturing process technology	28 nm	40 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	38 Watt	20 Watt
Texture fill rate	11.30	4.184
Floating-point performance	271.1 gflops	100.4 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).

Length	176 mm	156 mm
Width	1-slot	1-slot
Supplementary power connectors	None	None

Memory

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

Memory type	DDR3	DDR3
Maximum RAM amount	512 MB	512 MB
Memory bus width	64 Bit	64 Bit
Memory clock speed	1782 MHz	1750 MHz
Memory bandwidth	14.26 GB/s	14 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
