The GeForce GTX 965M was a mobile graphics chip by NVIDIA, launched in 2016. Built on the 28 nm process, and based on the GM206S graphics processor, in its N16E-GR-A1 variant, the chip supports DirectX 12. This ensures that all modern games will run on GeForce GTX 965M. The GM206S graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 228 mm² and 2,940 million transistors. It features 1024 shading units, 64 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs. NVIDIA has paired 2,048 MB GDDR5 memory with the GeForce GTX 965M, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 935 MHz, which can be boosted up to 1150 MHz, memory is running at 1253 MHz (5 Gbps effective). Being a mxm module card, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 965M does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is not exactly known. 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.
