The GeForce 7600 GT was a performance-segment graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on March 9th, 2006. Built on the 80 nm process, and based on the G73B graphics processor, in its G73-GT-N-B1 variant, the card supports DirectX 9.0c. Since GeForce 7600 GT does not support DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, it might not be able to run all the latest games. The G73B graphics processor is a relatively small chip with a die area of only 100 mm² and 177 million transistors. It features 12 pixel shaders and 5 vertex shaders, 12 texture mapping units, and 8 ROPs. Due to the lack of unified shaders you will not be able to run recent games at all (which require unified shader/DX10+ support). NVIDIA has paired 256 MB GDDR3 memory with the GeForce 7600 GT, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 560 MHz, memory is running at 700 MHz.
Being a single-slot card, the NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is rated at 40 W maximum. Display outputs include: 2x DVI, 1x S-Video. GeForce 7600 GT is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 1.0 x16 interface. Its price at launch was 199 US Dollars.
