User reviews

Performance

GPU clock speed

600MHz

1175MHz

The graphics processing unit (GPU) has a higher clock speed.

GPU turbo

1500MHz

1300MHz

When the GPU is running below its limitations, it can boost to a higher clock speed in order to give increased performance.

pixel rate

9.6 GPixel/s

20.8 GPixel/s

The number of pixels that can be rendered to the screen every second.

floating-point performance

0.34 TFLOPS

2.66 TFLOPS

Floating-point performance is a measurement of the raw processing power of the GPU.

texture rate

33.6 GTexels/s

83.2 GTexels/s

The number of textured pixels that can be rendered to the screen every second.

GPU memory speed

900MHz

1750MHz

The memory clock speed is one aspect that determines the memory bandwidth.

shading units

Shading units (or stream processors) are small processors within the graphics card that are responsible for processing different aspects of the image.

texture mapping units (TMUs)

TMUs take textures and map them to the geometry of a 3D scene. More TMUs will typically mean that texture information is processed faster.

render output units (ROPs)

The ROPs are responsible for some of the final steps of the rendering process, writing the final pixel data to memory and carrying out other tasks such as anti-aliasing to improve the look of graphics.

Memory

effective memory speed

1800MHz

7000MHz

The effective memory clock speed is calculated from the size and data rate of the memory. Higher clock speeds can give increased performance in games and other apps.

maximum memory bandwidth

57.6GB/s

112GB/s

This is the maximum rate that data can be read from or stored into memory.

VRAM (video RAM) is the dedicated memory of a graphics card. More VRAM generally allows you to run games at higher settings, especially for things like texture resolution.

GDDR version

Newer versions of GDDR memory offer improvements such as higher transfer rates that give increased performance.

memory bus width

256bit

128bit

A wider bus width means that it can carry more data per cycle. It is an important factor of memory performance, and therefore the general performance of the graphics card.

Supports ECC memory

✖Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT
