The GeForce 210 PCI was a graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on October 12th, 2009. Built on the 40 nm process, and based on the GT216 graphics processor, the card supports DirectX 11.1. Even though it supports DirectX 11, the feature level is only 10_1, which can be problematic with many DirectX 11 & DirectX 12 titles. The GT216 graphics processor is a relatively small chip with a die area of only 100 mm² and 486 million transistors. Unlike the fully unlocked GeForce GT 220, which uses the same GPU but has all 48 shaders enabled, NVIDIA has disabled some shading units on the GeForce 210 PCI to reach the product's target shader count. It features 16 shading units, 8 texture mapping units, and 4 ROPs. NVIDIA has paired 512 MB DDR2 memory with the GeForce 210 PCI, which are connected using a 64-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 475 MHz, memory is running at 400 MHz. Being a single-slot card, the NVIDIA GeForce 210 PCI does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is rated at 31 W maximum. This device has no display connectivity, as it is not designed to have monitors connected to it. GeForce 210 PCI is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI interface. The card measures 145 mm in length, and features a single-slot cooling solution.
