Overview

Surpass the demands of the digital world with the NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 240 graphics card. Turn photos and home videos into masterpieces, view flawless Adobe Flash 10.1 video in full screen HD, and play the latest games with fast frame rates and NVIDIA® PhysX® effects. Energize your multimedia with GeForce GT 240 graphics.

Features

NVIDIA Unified Graphics Architecture
Fully unified graphics core dynamically allocates work to geometry, vertex, physics, or pixel shading operations, delivering superior graphics processing power.

NVIDIA® CUDA™ Parallel Computing Architecture2
Massively parallel computing architecture provides unprecedented levels of general processing power increasing performance up to 20x over CPUs.

DirectCompute Support
Full support for DirectCompute, Microsoft’s GPU computing API.

OpenCL Support
Full support for OpenCL GPU computing API.

Microsoft Windows 7 Support
Windows 7 is the next generation operating system that will mark a dramatic improvement in the way the OS takes advantage of the graphics processing unit (GPU) to provide a more compelling user experience. By taking advantage of the GPU for both graphics and computing, Windows 7 will not only make today’s PCs more visual and more interactive but also ensure that they have the speed and responsiveness customers want.

NVIDIA® PhysX® Technology1
GeForce GPU support for NVIDIA PhysX technology, enabling a totally new class of physical gaming interaction for a more dynamic and realistic experience with GeForce.

PCI Express 2.0 Support
Designed for the new PCI Express 2.0 bus architecture offering the highest data transfer speeds for the most bandwidth-hungry games and 3D applications, while maintaining backwards compatibility with existing PCI Express motherboards for the broadest support.

GigaThread™ Technology
Massively multi-threaded architecture supports thousands of independent, simultaneous threads, providing extreme processing efficiency in advanced, next generation shader programs.

NVIDIA® Lumenex™ Engine
Delivers stunning image quality and floating point accuracy at ultra-fast frame rates.

16x Anti-aliasing Technology
Lightning fast, high-quality anti-aliasing at up to 16x sample rates obliterates jagged edges.

128-bit floating point High Dynamic-Range (HDR) Lighting
Twice the precision of prior generations for incredibly realistic lighting effects— with support for anti-aliasing.

NVIDIA® GeForce® Unified Driver Architecture (UDA)
Delivers a proven record of compatibility, reliability, and stability with the widest range of games and applications. GeForce drivers provide the best out-of-box experience for every user and deliver continuous performance and feature updates over the life of GeForce GPUs.

NVIDIA® PureVideo® HD Technology3
The combination of high-definition video decode acceleration and post-processing that delivers unprecedented picture clarity, smooth video, accurate color, and precise image scaling for movies and video.

Hardware Decode Acceleration
Provides ultra-smooth playback of H.264, VC-1, WMV, DivX, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 HD and SD movies without the need for a dual or quad-core CPU.

Dual-stream Hardware Acceleration
Supports picture-in-picture content for the ultimate interactive Blu-ray and HD DVD movie experience.

Dynamic Contrast Enhancement & Color Stretch
Provides post-processing and optimization of High Definition movies on a scene by scene basis for spectacular picture clarity.

Enhanced Error Resilience
Correct errors or losses in broadcast content to ensure crisp, high quality playback.

Advanced Spatial-Temporal De-Interlacing
Sharpens HD and standard definition interlaced content on progressive displays, delivering a crisp, clear picture that rivals high-end home-theater systems.

High-Quality Scaling
Enlarges lower resolution movies and videos to HDTV resolutions, while maintaining a clear, clean image. Also provides downscaling of videos, including high-definition, while preserving image detail.

Inverse Telecine (3:2 & 2:2 Pulldown Correction)
Recovers original film images from films-converted-to-video (DVDs, 1080i HD content), providing more accurate movie playback and superior picture quality.

Bad Edit Correction
When videos are edited, the edits can disrupt the normal 3:2 or 2:2 pulldown cadence. PureVideo uses advanced processing techniques to detect poor edits, recover the original content, and display perfect picture detail frame after frame for smooth, natural looking video.

Noise Reduction
Improves movie image quality by removing unwanted artifacts.

Edge Enhancement
Sharpens movie images by providing higher contrast around lines and objects.

Microsoft® DirectX® 10.1 Support
DirectX 10.1 GPU with Shader Model 4.1 support.

OpenGL® 3.0 Optimization and Support
Ensures top-notch compatibility and performance for OpenGL applications.

Dual 400MHz RAMDACs
Blazing-fast RAMDACs support dual QXGA displays with ultra-high, ergonomic refresh rates–up to 2048×1536@85Hz.

Dual-link DVI Support
Able to drive industry’s largest and highest resolution flat-panel displays up to 2560×1600 and with support for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP).

HDMI Support
Fully integrated support for HDMI including xvYCC, Deep color and 7.1 digital surround sound.

Dual-link HDCP Capable4
Designed to meet the output protection management (HDCP) and security specifications of the Blu-ray Disc format, allowing the playback of encrypted movie content on PCs when connected to HDCP-compliant displays.

1 NVIDIA PhysX drivers are required to experience in-game GPU PhysX acceleration. Refer to
www.nvidia.com/PhysX for more information.
2 Requires application support for CUDA technology.
3 Feature requires supported video software. Features may vary by product.
4 Requires other HDCP-compatible components.
