This list contains general information about graphics processing units (GPUs) and video cards from Nvidia, based on official specifications. In addition some Nvidia motherboards come with integrated onboard GPUs. Limited/special/collectors' editions or AIB versions are not included. Please do not edit the tables to match your specific AIB model.

Field explanations The fields in the table listed below describe the following:

Model – The marketing name for the processor, assigned by Nvidia. Launch Date – Date of release for the processor. Code Name – The internal engineering codename for the processor (typically designated by an NVXY name and later GXY where X is the series number and Y is the schedule of the project for that generation). Fab – Fabrication process. Average feature size of components of the processor. Bus interface – Bus by which the graphics processor is attached to the system (typically an expansion slot, such as PCI, AGP, or PCI-Express). Memory – The amount of graphics memory available to the processor. Base Clock – The factory core clock frequency; while some manufacturers adjust clocks lower and higher, this number will always be the reference clocks used by Nvidia. Memory Clock – The factory effective memory clock frequency (while some manufacturers adjust clocks lower and higher, this number will always be the reference clocks used by Nvidia). All DDR/GDDR memories operate at half this frequency, except for GDDR5, which operates at one quarter of this frequency. Core Config – The layout of the graphics pipeline, in terms of functional units. Over time the number, type, and variety of functional units in the GPU core has changed significantly; before each section in the list there is an explanation as to what functional units are present in each generation of processors. In later models, shaders are integrated into a unified shader architecture, where any one shader can perform any of the functions listed. Fillrate – Maximum theoretical fill rate in textured pixels per second. This number is generally used as a maximum throughput number for the GPU and generally, a higher fill rate corresponds to a more powerful (and faster) GPU. Memory subsection Bandwidth – Maximum theoretical bandwidth for the processor at factory clock with factory bus width. GHz = 10 Hz. Bus type – Type of memory bus or buses used. Bus width – Maximum bit width of the memory bus or buses used. This will always be a factory bus width. API support section Direct3D – Maximum version of Direct3D fully supported. OpenGL – Maximum version of OpenGL fully supported. OpenCL – Maximum version of OpenCL fully supported. Vulkan – Maximum version of Vulkan fully supported. CUDA - Maximum version of Cuda fully supported. Features – Added features that are not standard as a part of the two graphics libraries.

Desktop GPUs Pre-GeForce
