GeForce 7900 GTO: specs and benchmarks
Summary
NVIDIA started GeForce 7900 GTO sales 1 October 2006. This is a desktop graphics card based on a Curie architecture and made with 90 nm manufacturing process. It is primarily aimed at gamer market. 512 MB of GDDR3 memory clocked at 1.32 GHz are supplied, and together with 256 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 42.24 GB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is single-slot card attached via PCIe 1.0 x16 interface. 1x 6-pin power connector is required, and power consumption is at 81 Watt.
