nVidia
• 3rd Number
–Usually 0
nVidia
GS < GT < GTS < GTX
• G or GS - The standard video cards with core clocks that are not high and are made to keep a minimum performance
• GT - Slightly higher core clocks and possibly more onboard memory than the GS, It is mainly a budget performance card
• GTS - Includes possibly more onboard ram and higher than average core clocks possibly more pixel shaders or pipelines to increase performance
• GTX - Has the most memory of the group and higher clocks than all previous also includes more pixel pipelines and usually outperforms the GTS by atleast 10-15 percent
nVidia
