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	704	no data
Core clock speed	no data	275 MHz
Boost clock speed	1240 MHz	no data
Number of transistors	4,940 million	45 million
Manufacturing process technology	14 nm	150 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	65 Watt	13 Watt
Texture fill rate	61.60	1.100
Floating-point performance	1,760 gflops	no data

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	IGP	PCI
Length	no data	168 mm
Width	IGP	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	System Shared	DDR
Maximum RAM amount	System Shared	64 MB
Memory bus width	System Shared	128 Bit
Memory clock speed	System Shared	500 MHz
Memory bandwidth	no data	8 GB/s
Shared memory	-	no data

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

No outputs
