About the NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M GPU
The NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M is an end-of-life mobile graphics card that released in Q2 2013. It is built on the Kepler GPU microarchitecture (codename GK107) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.
Memory
The GT 740M has 2 GB of DDR3 memory, with a 901 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 28.83 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The GT 740M includes 384 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 810 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 895 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 32 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 16 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 45 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.
Benchmark Performance
The GT 740M has the 371st best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 1.77% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Mobile GPU
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Mobile is a mobile graphics card that launched in Q1 2019. It is built on the Turing GPU microarchitecture (codename TU106) and is manufactured on a 12 nm process.
Memory
The RTX 2060 Mobile has 6 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 1,750 MHz memory clock and a 192 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 336 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The RTX 2060 Mobile includes 1,920 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 960 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,200 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 120 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 48 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 240 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 30 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 115 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.
Benchmark Performance
The RTX 2060 Mobile has the 108th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 20.33% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
