About the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 is an end-of-life desktop graphics card that released in Q1 2009 with a MSRP of $359. It is built on the Tesla 2.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename GT200B) and is manufactured on a 55 nm process.

Memory

The GTX 285 has 1,024 MB of GDDR3 memory, with a 1,242 MHz memory clock and a 512 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 159 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 285 includes 240 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 648 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 80 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 32 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GTX 285 occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports DVI, S-Video display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 550 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 204 W.
