NVIDIA Tesla K40c Specs
NVIDIA released the Tesla K40c, a professional graphics card designed for enthusiasts, on October 8, 2013. The card, in its GK180-890-A1 model, supports DirectX 12 and is based on the GK180 graphics processor and the 28 nm technology. A huge device with 7,080 million transistors and a die area of 561 mm² is the GK180 graphics processor. In addition to 48 ROPs, it has 240 texture mapping units and 2880 shading units. The Tesla K40c and 12 GB of GDDR5 memory have been matched by NVIDIA and are connected via a 384-bit memory interface. While the GPU operates at 745 MHz, with the potential to increase to 876 MHz, the RAM operates at 1502 MHz (6 Gbps effective).
With a maximum power consumption rating of 245 W, the NVIDIA Tesla K40c is a dual-slot card that uses one 6-pin and one 8-pin power connector. Since it is not intended to be linked to a monitor, this device does not support display connectivity. Using a PCI-Express 3.0 x16 interface, the Tesla K40c is linked to the rest of the system. With a dual-slot cooling solution, the card is 267 mm long. When it was first released, it cost 7699 USD.
