The GeForce GT 240M LE was a mobile graphics chip by NVIDIA, launched on January 15th, 2010. Built on the 55 nm process, and based on the G96C graphics processor, in its N10P-GE1 variant, the chip 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 G96C graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 121 mm² and 314 million transistors. It features 32 shading units, 16 texture mapping units, and 8 ROPs. NVIDIA has paired 512 MB GDDR3 memory with the GeForce GT 240M LE, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 600 MHz, memory is running at 800 MHz. Its power draw is rated at 23 W maximum. This device has no display connectivity, as it is not designed to have monitors connected to it. Rather it is intended for use in laptop/notebooks and will use the output of the host mobile device. GeForce GT 240M LE is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface.
