The NVS 315 was a mid-range professional graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on March 10th, 2013. Built on the 40 nm process, and based on the GF119S graphics processor, in its GF119-825-A1 variant, the card supports DirectX 12. The GF119S graphics processor is a relatively small chip with a die area of only 79 mm² and 292 million transistors. It features 48 shading units, 8 texture mapping units, and 4 ROPs. NVIDIA has paired 1,024 MB DDR3 memory with the NVS 315, which are connected using a 64-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 523 MHz, memory is running at 875 MHz.
Being a single-slot card, the NVIDIA NVS 315 does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is rated at 19 W maximum. Display outputs include: 1x DMS-59. NVS 315 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface. The card measures 145 mm in length, and features a single-slot cooling solution. Its price at launch was 159 US Dollars.
