Form factor & compatibility
This section provides details about the physical dimensions of GeForce 320M and its compatibility with other computer components. This information is useful when selecting a computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop graphics cards, it includes details about the interface and bus (for motherboard compatibility) and additional power connectors (for power supply compatibility).
Interface | PCIe 2.0 x16 |
VRAM capacity and type
Parameters of memory installed on GeForce 320M: 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 | System Shared | |
Maximum RAM amount | System Shared | of 294912 (Radeon Instinct MI325X) |
Memory bus width | System Shared | of 8192 Bit (Radeon Instinct MI250X) |
Memory clock speed | System Shared | of 20000 (RTX 5000 Ada Generation Mobile) |

Connectivity and outputs
Types and number of video connectors present on GeForce 320M. 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 | No outputs |
API compatibility
APIs supported by GeForce 320M, sometimes including their particular versions.
DirectX | 11.1 (10_1) | |
Shader Model | 4.1 | |

Benchmark performance
Synthetic benchmark performance of GeForce 320M. The combined score is measured on a 0-100 point scale.
Combined synthetic benchmark score
This is our combined benchmark score. We are regularly improving our combining algorithms, but if you find some perceived inconsistencies, feel free to speak up in comments section, we usually fix problems quickly.
Passmark
This is the most ubiquitous GPU benchmark. It gives the graphics card a thorough evaluation under various types of 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.
3DMark Vantage Performance
3DMark Vantage is an outdated DirectX 10 benchmark using 1280x1024 screen resolution. It taxes the graphics card with two scenes, one depicting a girl escaping some militarized base located within a sea cave, the other displaying a space fleet attack on a defenseless planet. It was discontinued in April 2017, and Time Spy benchmark is now recommended to be used instead.
