GeForce GT 630M Review
GeForce GT 630M is part of the middle-class level 600M Series GPUS released by NVIDIA in 2011/2012.
There are two versions available: one with 96 Pipelines and a core clock of 672MHz (renamed GeForce GT 540M) and another with a core clock of 800MHZ and fast GDDR5.
This is the GDDR5, clocked at 800MHz and based on the optimized 28nm Fermi GF117 and so its power consumption is actually lower than the DDR3 variant despite featuring a 128MHz higher core-clock.
This version is very uncommon due to its higher price but expect its performance to be close to GeForce GT 635M.

The naming is kinda confusing (eg. GT 630 is just a renamed GT 440) and the name doesn't tell the specification like GDDR3/5. So I assumed GT630M is just the same as GT630 but with lower clock speed to lower heat and stuff.

I see through their plans: confuse the consumers so they can sell new cards with higher number in their names but is actually the same/slower than old released cards =.='
