We continue to acquaint our readers with novelties on the market of budget gaming video cards, which are based on NVIDIA GeForce GT 600 series chipsets and are designed to replace obsolete solutions from the GeForce GT 400/500 lines.
In previous articles, we have already paid attention to the fact that video accelerators based on the GeForce GT 610, GeForce GT 620 and GeForce GT 630 graphics processors are only renamed (or re-branded) models of previous generations, which are based on 40 nm graphics chips on basis of the Fermi architecture. Of course, for ordinary users, the purchase of a “new” model from the successful GeForce GT 600 line is a more attractive choice compared to products of previous generations that are losing their relevance, however, as we have already found out, the functionality and performance of the “new products” have not changed compared to their predecessors. For the first time, we had the opportunity to get acquainted with the features of the GeForce GT 630 graphics processor on the example of the ASUS GeForce GT 630 (GT630-2GD3) video card equipped with 2 GB of DDR3 video memory. Today, a budget (average cost $62) video accelerator 9 came to our test lab0007 Palit GeForce GT 630 ( NEAT6300HD01-1080F) based on the NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 chipset with the same type of video memory (DDR3), but with a capacity of 1 GB, which is still optimal for low-cost solutions.

Compared to NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 of the «reference» design, the video card Palit GeForce GT 630 ( NEAT6300HD01-1080F) has a lot of differences. First of all, you should pay attention to the reduced frequencies of the graphics core (from 810 to 780 MHz) and memory chips (from 1800 to 1600 MHz) compared to the recommendations of NVIDIA engineers, which should slightly reduce the performance level of the graphics accelerator in question, but at the same time reduce its heat dissipation and power consumption. In the corresponding parts of the review, we will also examine in detail the features of the branded cooler used and the alternative design of the printed circuit board of the Palit GeForce GT 630 video card, and we will start, according to tradition, with studying the packaging of the product and its bundle.
nine0003
The appearance of the packaging of Palit graphics accelerators was noticeably redesigned by the designers of the Taiwanese company in connection with the release of the GeForce GT 600 line. The design familiar to fans of this vendor with the image of the proprietary «graphics engine» has been replaced by a more strict and concise design. The small cardboard box that retails the Palit GeForce GT 630 graphics card has a large Palit logo on the front and some of the features of the product inside: 1 GB of memory, support for the Microsoft DirectX 11 API, as well as NVIDIA PhysX and CUDA technologies . nine0003
The reverse side of the box is also not very informative. Here are the main features of the Palit GeForce GT 630 1 GB DDR3 video card in 12 languages (including Russian), as well as the basic requirements for the system in which you plan to install the Palit GeForce GT 630. We only note that the power supply in such a computer must have a capacity not
The set of standard accessories consists only of a disk with drivers and instructions for using the graphics adapter.
Palit positions its video cards as solutions that have the best balance between price and features, so you should not be surprised at the meager delivery set. However, taking into account a fairly versatile set of ports for displaying images and the absence of the need to connect additional power, for most scenarios of using the Palit GeForce GT 630 video card, additional accessories are unlikely to be needed. nine0003
Palit GeForce GT 630 graphics card has the following interfaces for outputting images:
For a modern HTPC, media center or general-purpose home PC for which the Palit GeForce GT 630 graphics card is primarily designed, this video output configuration will be more than enough . In most cases, the proposed set of ports will allow you to connect a monitor, plasma panel or projector without using additional adapters, which, of course, can be attributed to the advantages of this solution. nine0003
The circuit board of the Palit GeForce GT 630 video card is made on brown textolite using an alternative design and arrangement of elements developed by Palit engineers.
At the same time, the dimensions of the board remained practically unchanged compared to the standard proposed by NVIDIA engineers, which guarantees good compatibility of the product under consideration with modern cases of even Micro- and Mini-Tower format.
In comparison with the «reference» sample of the NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 graphics adapter, the power stabilization system of the Palit GeForce GT 630 video accelerator has undergone some simplifications. Instead of the recommended 2+1-phase circuit, a simpler converter is used here, including one phase for the GPU and memory chips, which are controlled by two single-phase uP1529P PWM controllers from uPI Semiconductor. On the one hand, such a simplification allowed developers to reduce the cost and final price of the product, but on the other hand, this change, of course, may not have the best effect on the service life of the video card and its overclocking potential.
We dare to assume that the factory lowering the frequency of the graphics core and memory chips in relation to the recommendations of NVDIA specialists for the GeForce GT 630 chipset, which we mentioned a little higher, could probably be a forced measure due to the use of a simplified power system by Palit engineers. nine0003
There are practically no functional elements on the reverse side of the printed circuit board, which should positively affect the cooling of the video card as a whole. Several miniature ceramic capacitors, which are soldered opposite the graphics core, are designed to reduce noise and voltage ripple. The connector for connecting the SLI bridge is quite naturally absent, because the Palit GeForce GT 630 video card is positioned by the manufacturer as an energy-efficient solution for entry-level systems not focused on active gaming. nine0003
According to the developers, the maximum power consumption of the Palit GeForce GT 630 graphics accelerator does not exceed 65 W, which means that there is no need for an additional power connector.
Recall that the PCI-E bus of the second revision is capable of providing up to 75 watts of power for a discrete graphics adapter.
The heart of the Palit GeForce GT 630 1 GB DDR3 video card is the GF108-400-A1 graphics chip (Fermi architecture), manufactured according to the 40 nm process technology. Recall that in the version for the GeForce GT 630 (GeForce GT 440) it includes 96 universal shader processors (or CUDA cores in NVIDIA’s terminology) and 16 rasterization units, and data exchange with memory is carried out via a 128-bit wide bus. The rest of its characteristics are shown in the screenshot above.
DDR3 video memory with a total volume of 1 GB is assembled using 8 chips of 128 MB each (NT5CB64M16OP-CF), which are soldered on the front side of the printed circuit board. The chips were produced by the company NANYA, which is not very well known to domestic enthusiasts, and has a nominal frequency of 1600 MHz, which is 200 MHz lower than the recommendation of NVIDIA specialists.
nine0003
The proprietary cooling system used for the Palit GeForce GT 630 video card is one of the key features of this solution, which distinguishes it from many similar products.
The cooler occupies two expansion slots and consists of an aluminum heatsink and a small fan. Combinations of black and orange colors have been used by Palit designers for quite some time, but this solution still looks very attractive. nine0003
The cooling system is in contact with the graphics chip through a small layer of thermal paste, and is fastened with four spring-loaded screws.
Memory chips and power elements of the power system do not have contact with the main radiator and are not equipped with additional cooling, which may adversely affect the overclocking potential of the solution as a whole, but this is hardly of great importance for the target audience of the Palit GeForce GT 630.
To evaluate the efficiency of the applied cooling system, we performed our standard set of tests using the MSI Kombustor utility.
Traditionally, the tests were carried out in two cooler operating modes: automatic control and maximum fan speed. nine0003
In auto mode with a long maximum load, the temperature of the graphics core did not exceed 74 degrees, which is a good, but not outstanding result, taking into account the low heat dissipation of 40 nm of the NVIDIA GF108 graphics chip, which, in this case, also works at a slightly lower frequency. It is important that the cooler in this mode operated at 49% of its capacity, producing a low noise level, which practically did not stand out against the general background of the system operation. nine0003
After we set the fan speed to maximum and tested again, we recorded a decrease in the maximum temperature of the GPU by only 7 degrees, which allows us to speak only about a small “safety margin” of the applied cooling system, which could be used during manual acceleration. The noise level emitted by the cooler in the maximum efficiency mode can be described as «below average»: it is clearly audible against the background of the operation of the rest of the system components, but it does not cause much discomfort.
nine0003
When there is no load, the frequencies of the graphics core and memory are automatically reduced, which leads to even lower power consumption and heat dissipation. The cooler in this mode works almost silently, and the temperature of the graphics core does not exceed 42 degrees.
In general, the proprietary cooling system used for the Palit GeForce GT 630 video card, , demonstrated decent cooling efficiency for the NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 graphics processor at a low noise level. The relatively quiet operation of the considered graphics accelerator, both under stress and during everyday tasks, is undoubtedly one of the most attractive aspects of this product for those users who plan to install it in an HTPC or general purpose home PC. nine0003
