Meet The Gainward GeForce GTX 1630 Ghost
The GTX 1630 is likely to be a model new card however it’s based mostly on the very acquainted Turing structure, particularly the 12nm TU117 chip. The PCIe 3.0 card sports activities 512 shader cores, 16 ROPs, a core GPU clock of 1740MHz that may Enhance to 1785MHz, and 4GBs of GDDR6 operating at 1500MHz.
