Graphics Performance
The GeForce3 Ti 200 scores 4 in the G3D Mark benchmark (the standard measure of rasterization GPU performance), placing it in the Entry Level tier as a Legacy generation graphics card. It is built on the Turing (2018−2022) architecture (codename: TU104), manufactured on a 12 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 2944 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 184 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 64 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 10.07 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 1710 MHz from a base of 1515 MHz.
