Blender benchmark score

2,361

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

VRAM

8 GB

Enough for moderate scenes; heavy assets may push against the limit.

CUDA cores

2,560

Lower core count — adequate for lighter rendering workloads.

Architecture

Turing

Older architecture — introduced hardware ray tracing for NVIDIA GPUs.

Memory bandwidth

448 GB/s

Moderate bandwidth — sufficient for standard rendering workloads.

Boost clock

1770 MHz

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

Render support

OptiX, CUDA

OptiX is typically the fastest option; CUDA provides a reliable fallback.

TDP

215 W

Relatively efficient — manageable in most desktop builds.

Release year

2019
