Description

DirectX 11 GPU with Shader support designed for ultra high performance in the API's key graphics feature, GPU-accelerated tessellation.

CUDA technology unlocks the power of the GPU's processor cores to accelerate the most demanding tasks such as video transcoding, physics simulation, ray tracing, and more, delivering incredible performance improvements over traditional CPUs.

Full support for NVIDIA PhysX technology, enabling physical gaming interaction for a more dynamic and realistic experience with GeForce.

The combination of high-definition video decode acceleration and post-processing that delivers unprecedented picture clarity, smooth video, accurate color, and precise image scaling for movies and video.

Designed for the PCI Express bus architecture offering the highest data transfer speeds for the most bandwidth-hungry games and 3D applications, while maintaining backwards compatibility with existing PCI Express motherboards for the broadest support.

Is designed to meet the output protection management (HDCP) and security specifications of the Blu-ray disc format, allowing the playback of encrypted movie content on PCs when connected to HDCP-compliant displays.

NVIDIA GeForce Graphics

Graphics processing has become an essential ingredient to the modern PC. Nowadays, we simply demand more from our PCs. If you want to enhance photos, edit videos, watch movies, play games, or if you simply desire a Premium Windows® 7 Experience, NVIDIA® GeForce® graphics brings impressive graphics processing power to your PC at an incredible value.

Spectacular Video

Get all the video processing power that your digital lifestyle requires. Enhance photos, clean up home videos and post them to Facebook up to 50% faster² with the GeForce 210 or GeForce GT520 GPUs. Convert your video and put it on your iPod in minutes instead of hours³ or make your DVDs look like HD. Does your PC have a CPU powerful enough to playback high definition Blu-Ray Movies? It doesn’t matter, the GeForce 210 and GT520 can playback any Blu Ray Movie with any modern CPU4.

Gorgeous Graphics

Modern games and 3D applications demand more graphics performance than ever before and Intel integrated graphics simply aren’t good enough. The GeForce 210 delivers over 10x the performance¹ of Intel integrated solutions! If you want to play popular mainstream games like World of Warcraft, Spore or Sims3, the GeForce 210 is an essential addition to your PC. For games that require more performance or DirectX 11 then the GT520 is the ideal graphics processor to get you and your system to the next level.

Premium Windows 7 Experience

Graphics processing units (GPUs) are an essential element of today’s PCs, enabling more visual and more interactive experiences. As a leader in visual computing and the inventor of the GeForce GPU, NVIDIA worked closely with Microsoft on the development of Windows 7 to ensure that its GPUs take full advantage of the great new features and functionality. If you use your PC to enhance photos, watch or edit videos, play games, or if you simply desire a fast and efficient graphical interface, NVIDIA GPUs will surely delight your senses and offer a premium Windows 7 experience.1 Compared to Intel G45.
