GPU code name	NV45
Market segment	Desktop
Release date	8 June 2004 (18 years old)
Current price	$179	of 49999 (A100 SXM4)

Technical specs

GeForce 6800 GT’s general performance parameters such as number of shaders, GPU base clock, manufacturing process, texturing and calculation speed. These parameters indirectly speak of GeForce 6800 GT’s performance, but for precise assessment you have to consider its benchmark and gaming test results.

Core clock speed	350 MHz	of 2610 (Radeon RX 6500 XT)
Number of transistors	222 million	of 14400 (GeForce GTX 1080 SLI Mobile)
Manufacturing process technology	130 nm	of 4 (GeForce RTX 4080 Ti)
Thermal design power (TDP)	67 Watt	of 2400 (Data Center GPU Max Subsystem)
Texture fill rate	5. 600	of 969.9 (h200 SXM5 96 GB)

Compatibility, dimensions and requirements

Information on GeForce 6800 GT’s 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 1.0 x16
Width	1-slot
Supplementary power connectors	1x 6-pin

Memory

Parameters of memory installed on GeForce 6800 GT: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Note that GPUs integrated into processors have no dedicated memory and use a shared part of system RAM instead.

Memory type	GDDR3
Maximum RAM amount	256 MB	of 128 (Radeon Instinct MI250X)
Memory bus width	256 Bit	of 8192 (Radeon Instinct MI250X)
Memory clock speed	1000 MHz	of 22400 (GeForce RTX 4080)
Memory bandwidth	32 GB/s	of 14400 (Radeon R7 M260)

Video outputs and ports

Types and number of video connectors present on GeForce 6800 GT. As a rule, this section is relevant only for desktop reference graphics cards, since for notebook ones the availability of certain video outputs depends on the laptop model, while non-reference desktop models can (though not necessarily will) bear a different set of video ports.

Display Connectors

2x DVI, 1x S-Video

API support

APIs supported by GeForce 6800 GT, sometimes including their particular versions.

DirectX	9.0c (9_3)
Shader Model	3.0
OpenGL	2.1	of 4.6 (GeForce GTX 1080 Mobile)
OpenCL	N/A
Vulkan	N/A

Benchmark performance

Non-gaming benchmark performance of GeForce 6800 GT. Note that overall benchmark performance is measured in points in 0-100 range.

Passmark

Passmark

This is probably the most ubiquitous benchmark, part of Passmark PerformanceTest suite. It gives the graphics card a thorough evaluation under various load, providing four separate benchmarks for Direct3D versions 9, 10, 11 and 12 (the last being done in 4K resolution if possible), and few more tests engaging DirectCompute capabilities.
