Value for money

Performance to price ratio. The higher, the better.

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	480	384
Core clock speed	650 MHz	730 MHz
Boost clock speed	no data	780 MHz
Number of transistors	716 million	950 million
Manufacturing process technology	40 nm	28 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	60 Watt	50 Watt
Texture fill rate	15.60	18.72
Floating-point performance	624 gflops	599.0 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).

Interface	PCIe 2.0 x16	PCIe 3.0 x8
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, GDDR5	GDDR3
Maximum RAM amount	2 GB	2 GB
Memory bus width	128 Bit	128 Bit
Memory clock speed	1600 MHz	1800 MHz
Memory bandwidth	64 GB/s	28.8 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	1x DVI, 1x HDMI, 1x VGA	1x DVI, 1x HDMI, 1x VGA
HDMI	+	+

API support
