NVIDIA GeForce 940MX

The GeForce 940MX is an NVIDIA GPU that was released in 2016 June. This GPU is bad at gaming with a score of 306 points in our PC benchmark.

It has a total memory bandwidth of 15 GB/s. The memory bus has a width of 64 bits.

In terms of clock speed, the GeForce 940MX GPU core runs at a frequency of 1004 MHz and if power and temperature permits, it can boost up to 1242 MHz. The core clock is directly related to the performance of a GPU, the higher the clock, the more processing can be done per second. A higher clock does not guarantee better performance by itself, this also depends on the number of shading units and other elements of the pipeline.

As for rendering API support, the GeForce 940MX supports up to DirectX 12. In addition, in cross-platform titles, OpenGL 4.6 features are supported. If your GPU is too old and doesn't support a newer API certain titles may not be playable.

The NVIDIA GeForce 940MX has a TDP of 23W, this is the amount of heat energy produced by the chip as a byproduct. The higher the TDP, the more heat is produced.
