Detailed specifications

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.

Pipelines / CUDA cores	7	12
Core clock speed	no data	900 MHz
Boost clock speed	2200 MHz	1300 MHz
Number of transistors	no data	11,500 million
Manufacturing process technology	5 nm	6 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	no data	65 Watt (65 - 95 Watt TGP)
Texture fill rate	no data	124.8

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).
