The GeForce 9300 GE was a graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on June 1st, 2008. Built on the 65 nm process, and based on the G98S graphics processor, the card supports DirectX 11.1. Even though it supports DirectX 11, the feature level is only 10_0, which can be problematic with many DirectX 11 & DirectX 12 titles. The G98S graphics processor is a relatively small chip with a die area of only 86 mm² and 210 million transistors. It features 8 shading units, 4 texture mapping units, and 4 ROPs. NVIDIA has paired 256 MB DDR2 memory with the GeForce 9300 GE, which are connected using a 64-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 540 MHz, memory is running at 400 MHz.
Being a single-slot card, the NVIDIA GeForce 9300 GE does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is not exactly known. Display outputs include: 1x DVI, 1x HDMI, 1x VGA. GeForce 9300 GE is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface.
