Quadro NVS 510M: specs and benchmarks
Aggregated performance score
It provides poor gaming and benchmark performance at 0.65% of a leader's which is GeForce RTX 4090.
Summary
NVIDIA started Quadro NVS 510M sales 21 August 2006. This is a Curie architecture notebook card based on 90 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at designers. 256 MB of GDDR3 memory clocked at 1.2 GHz are supplied, and together with 128 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 19.2 GB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is card attached via PCIe 1.0 x16 interface. Power consumption is at 35 Watt.

Size and compatibility
Information on Quadro NVS 510M's compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. 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.
| Interface | PCIe 1.0 x16 |
Memory
Parameters of memory installed on Quadro NVS 510M: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Note that GPUs integrated into processors have no dedicated memory and use a shared part of system RAM instead.
| Memory type | GDDR3 | |
| Maximum RAM amount | 256 MB | of 192 (Radeon Instinct MI300X) |
| Memory bus width | 128 Bit | of 8192 (Radeon Instinct MI250X) |
