NVIDIA Quadro NVS 440 PCIe x1: specs and benchmarks

Summary

NVIDIA started Quadro NVS 440 PCIe x1 sales 14 February 2006. This is a Curie architecture desktop card based on 110 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at designers. 128 MB of GDDR3 memory clocked at 0.25 GHz are supplied, and together with 128 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 8 GB/s.

Compatibility-wise, this is a single-slot graphics card attached via PCIe 1.0 x1 interface. Its manufacturer default version has a length of 187 mm. No additional power connector is required, and power consumption is at 31 Watt.
