463
Entry-level speed — fine for learning and lighter scenes.
6 GB
Limited — best for simpler scenes and lighter workflows.
2,880
Lower core count — adequate for lighter rendering workloads.
Kepler
Older architecture — check benchmark scores for a practical performance picture.
336 GB/s
Lower bandwidth may become a bottleneck in texture-heavy or complex scenes.
980 MHz
Lower clock speed — typical of older or workstation-class GPUs.
CUDA
CUDA provides the primary GPU rendering path in Blender Cycles.
250 W
Moderate power needs — standard workstation PSU and cooling should be fine.

Benchmark performance
This chart estimates how many seconds this GPU takes to render one frame of each standard Blender benchmark scene, so you can compare practical rendering speed at a glance.
These are single-frame estimates derived from Blender Open Data benchmark medians at the scene sample counts, not full-animation render times or guarantees for every real project.
