NVIDIA's GF100 GPU uses the Fermi architecture and is made using a 40 nm production process at TSMC. With a die size of 529 mm² and a transistor count of 3,100 million it is a very big chip. GF100 supports DirectX 12 (Feature Level 11_0). For GPU compute applications, OpenCL version 1.1 and CUDA 2.0 can be used. It features 512 shading units, 64 texture mapping units and 48 ROPs.

GF100 GPU Notes

GF100 has 4 GPCs each capable of 8 pixels per clock. This limits complete GPU to 32 pixels per clock and because of that it can't feed all 48 ROPs when they all require data at the same time.
Additional ROPs however can be used for MSAA (because it doesn't require additional data from rasterizers, while giving more work to ROPs.)
