NVIDIA GeForce GT 720M

The GeForce GT 720M is a GPU from NVIDIA released in 2013. This chip has a bad gaming score with 121 points in our GPU benchmark.

It has a total memory bandwidth of 12 GB/s. The memory bus has a width of 64 bits.

In terms of clock speed, the GeForce GT 720M GPU core runs at a frequency of 719 MHz and if power and temperature permits, it can boost up to 758 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 GT 720M supports up to DirectX 12. In addition, in cross-platform titles, OpenGL 4.6 features are supported. Newer APIs are usually more efficient, allowing for better performance in games and better graphical effects.

This chip has a Thermal Design Power of 33W: the total amount of waste heat generated. A card that runs hotter will need better cooling and will draw more power from the wall.
