Form factor & 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 3.0 x16 | PCIe 2.0 x4 |
| Width | 1-slot | no data |
| Supplementary power connectors | None | no data |
VRAM capacity and type
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 | GDDR6 | LPDDR4 |
| Maximum RAM amount | 2 GB | 4 GB |
| Memory bus width | 64 Bit | 64 Bit |
| Memory clock speed | 1250 MHz | 600 MHz |
| Memory bandwidth | 80 GB/s | 9.6 GB/s |
Connectivity and outputs
This section shows the types and number of video connectors on each GPU. The data applies specifically to desktop reference models (for example, NVIDIA’s Founders Edition). OEM partners often modify both the number and types of ports. On notebook GPUs, video‐output options are determined by the laptop’s design rather than the graphics chip itself.
| Display Connectors | 3x mini-DisplayPort | Portable Device Dependent |
API and SDK support

Pros & cons summary
| Recency | 6 May 2021 | 4 January 2015 |
| Maximum RAM amount | 2 GB | 4 GB |
| Chip lithography | 12 nm | 20 nm |
| Power consumption (TDP) | 30 Watt | 6 Watt |
T400 has an age advantage of 6 years, and a 67% more advanced lithography process.
Jetson TX1, on the other hand, has a 100% higher maximum VRAM amount, and 400% lower power consumption.
We couldn't decide between T400 and Jetson TX1. We've got no test results to judge.
Be aware that T400 is a workstation graphics card while Jetson TX1 is a notebook one.
