GeForce GTS 450
The GeForce GTS 450 video adapter is based on the GF106 chip, has 192 stream processors, a 128-bit memory bus, 1 GB of GDDR5 video memory and nominal frequencies of 783/1566/3600 MHz. For the device to operate correctly, you will need to power a single 6-pin PCI-E Power connector; In addition, it is possible to combine two such cards into a 2-Way SLI tandem.
The length of the printed circuit board of the reference GTS 450 video accelerator is 21 cm. Users will have at their disposal a low-noise (we hope) two-slot cooler and a set of Dual-Link DVI-I (x2) and mini HDMI ports.
From the second slide we learn about the number of texture units (32 units) and Polymorph engines (4 units), which is equivalent to 16 rasterization units. The power consumption of the GeForce GTS is slightly lower than previously expected - 106 W, not 125 W. Thus, the difference in this indicator with its competitors - Radeon HD 5750 and HD 5770 - turned out to be minimal.
NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 will replace the mid-budget video card of the previous generation – GeForce GTS 250 (G92b). The appearance of the GeForce GTS 450 accelerator - the successor to the now popular GeForce GTS 250 - is expected in the next few days. Meanwhile, the model by Colorful is already priced at 150 euros and will be available starting next week.
The Colorful GeForce GTS 450 is based on the GF106 graphics processor, which is built using 40nm technology and operates at 783 MHz. GPU carries 192 CUDA cores, whose clock frequency is 1566 MHz, and is designed to interact with GDDR5 memory modules with a capacity of 1 GB and a frequency of 3608 MHz. The model is equipped with a 128-bit memory bus, four Polymorph engines, a 6-pin PCI-E Power connector and a cooler for two expansion slots. Two DVI and one mini HDMI connectors are intended for connection to a monitor or LCD TV.

Judging by the first tests, the video card will be able to compete with the Radeon HD 5770 in terms of performance.
