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.

Core clock speed	1190 MHz	no data
Boost clock speed	1329 MHz	2040 MHz
Number of transistors	15,300 million	10,300 million
Manufacturing process technology	16 nm	7 nm
Thermal design power (TDP)	250 Watt	205 Watt
Texture fill rate	297.7	293.8
Floating-point performance	10,609 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 video cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility).

Interface	PCIe 3.0 x16	PCIe 4.0 x16
Length	267 mm	305 mm
Width	2-slot	Quad-slot
Supplementary power connectors	1x 8-pin	None

Memory

Parameters of VRAM installed: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Integrated GPUs have no dedicated VRAM and use a shared part of system RAM.

Memory type	HBM2	GDDR6
Maximum RAM amount	12 GB	16 GB
Memory bus width	3072 Bit	256 Bit
Memory clock speed	1430 MHz	14000 MHz
Memory bandwidth	549.1 GB/s	448.0 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	No outputs	1x HDMI, 4x Thunderbolt
HDMI	no data	+
