Built on the 28 nm process, and based on the GK107 graphics processor, the card supports DirectX 12. The GK107 graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 118 mm² and 1,270 million transistors. GRID K340 combines four graphics processors to increase performance. It features 384 shading units, 32 texture mapping units, and 16 ROPs, per GPU. NVIDIA has paired 4 GB GDDR5 memory with the GRID K340, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface per GPU (each GPU manages 1,024 MB). The GPU is operating at a frequency of 954 MHz, memory is running at 1250 MHz (5 Gbps effective). Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA GRID K340 draws power from 1x 8-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 225 W maximum. This device has no display connectivity, as it is not designed to have monitors connected to it. GRID K340 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 3.0 x16 interface. The card measures 267 mm in length, and features a dual-slot cooling solution. Its price at launch was 3299 US Dollars.
