About the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX (Mac Edition) GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX (Mac Edition) is an end-of-life mobile graphics card that released in Q4 2012. It is built on the Kepler GPU microarchitecture (codename GK104) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.

Memory

The GTX 680MX has 2 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,250 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 160 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 GTX 680MX includes 1,536 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 719 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 719 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 128 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 32 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 122 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The GTX 680MX has the 224th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 6.44% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.

About the NVIDIA Quadro P2000 GPU

The NVIDIA Quadro P2000 is an end-of-life workstation graphics card that released in Q1 2017. It is built on the Pascal GPU microarchitecture (codename GP106) and is manufactured on a 16 nm process.

Memory

The P2000 has 5 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,752 MHz memory clock and a 160 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 140.2 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 P2000 includes 1,024 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,076 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,480 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 64 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 40 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The P2000 is a compact, low-profile graphics card that fits into 1 PCIe expansion slot. It supports DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 250 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 75 W.

Benchmark Performance

The P2000 has the 198th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 8.02% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
