Blender benchmark score

450

Entry-level speed — fine for learning and lighter scenes.

VRAM

6 GB

Limited — best for simpler scenes and lighter workflows.

CUDA cores

2,880

Lower core count — adequate for lighter rendering workloads.

Architecture

Kepler

Older architecture — check benchmark scores for a practical performance picture.

Memory bandwidth

336 GB/s

Lower bandwidth may become a bottleneck in texture-heavy or complex scenes.

Boost clock

876 MHz

Lower clock speed — typical of older or workstation-class GPUs.

Render support

CUDA

CUDA provides the primary GPU rendering path in Blender Cycles.

TDP

375 W

Moderate power needs — standard workstation PSU and cooling should be fine.

Release year

2014
