Nvidia GeForce GTX 260M


Released June, 2008

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Features CUDA and PhysX technologies. Built on Nvidia's latest 55nm process (lower power consumption and higher clockspeeds than previous generations). SLI ready.

The Cons:Not based on the GTX 260 at all - is actually based on G92b (9800 GTX+).

The Nvidia GeForce GTX 260M is a high-end Graphics GPU designed specifically for mobile, and notebook computers. Nvidia claims that the Nvidia GeForce GTX 260M "notebook GPUs are the highest performing notebook GPUs in the world, and offer up to 50% more performance than the previous generation".

Product Shot 2 The GPU features a 1375MHz processor clock combined with a total of 1 GB GDDR3 onboard memory. The GeForce GTX 260M is PCI-express 2.0 enabled and features a max resolution of 2048 x 1536.

The GeForce GTX 260M offers real world gaming effects through the use of Nvidia PhysX technology which introduces real world physics and movement in today's next-gen games. Nvidia CUDA technology allows the GPU core to utilize its full potential. A great example of a powerful GPU process would be video transcoding; which Nvidia claims will gain more performance from the GTX 260M GPU. Additional GTX 260M offerings include full Blueray support through Nvidia PureVideo HD technology, and Nvidia HybridPower technology allows the GPU to switch between a hibernating and active state to conserve power.
