Nvidia GeForce 500M details and compare at CES 2011

Nvidia GeForce 500M details and compare at CES 2011
The Santa Clara company’s official launch of the series of Nvidia GeForce 500, evolution of GeForce 400M. The leap in performance compared to the past should not be exciting. Find out the details.

Basically, the series of Nvidia GeForce 500M video cards are the evolution of the GeForce 400M previous range. From this inherit the CUDA chip same 96-core (except for the top model of the category with 144 Core) and the bus for the memory to 128 bits, just as happens, for example, the GeForce GT 435m. This, in essence, suggests that the manufacturer has not intervened massively on the technology, preferring to exploit the existing know-how, before moving on to solutions made by different production systems.

Compare to the previous series, Nvidia GeForce 500M offers a frequency of 672 MHz for the GPU, which become 1344 MHz shader and 900 MHz for memory. These, in essence, are the main technical data for the model said Nvidia GeForce GT 540M of the mainstream. Taking as a reference, however, the aforementioned Nvidia GeForce GT 555m, these values are equal, respectively, at 590, 900 and 1180 MHz but the memory bus is 192 bits.

Despite these circumstances, it is not a line to fail, quite the contrary. Remains to be seen, in fact, the large number of integrated technologies that make it pretty interesting even before evaluating its performance on the field, is not an impartial referee. The GeForce 500M series supports, as expected, DirectX11 graphics libraries and is therefore suitable to deal with multimedia and games without too many problems. There are also 3D Vision and PhysX technology, already known and seen in previous models.

To underline the support that Optimus feature, remember, manages activation of dedicated video card compared to the controller integrated into a computing system when conditions so require. Differently, is to safeguard the autonomy and reduced fuel consumption. The new line of GPU models include the GeForce GT 540M, GT 550M and GT 555M notebook dedicated to high-performance and GeForce GT 520M and 525M for mainstream systems.

Nvidia GeForce GT 540M, which is actually one of the most interesting models, should be available in the coming weeks on the Chinese market initially before moving on to other international markets. Have in common the same fate as the other models in the series. Simultaneously, the manufacturer also introduced the GeForce GTX 485M characterized by frequencies of 575 MHz for the GPU’s shader and memory work, respectively, to 1,150 and 750 MHz but the most interesting feature is the number of CUDA Core equal to 384 and the 256-bit memory bus.
