GeForce GT 640M LE 384 Pipelines Review

GeForce GT 640M LE 384 Pipelines is a middle-class mobile GPU based on the 28nm Kepler GK107 Core.
It offers 384 Shader Processing Units, 32 TMUs and 16 ROPs on a 128-bit memory interface of up to 2GB DRR3. The central clock runs at 500MHz (570MHz in Turbo Mode) and the memory clock operates at 782.5MHz. Expect a power consumption of up to 20 Watts.
GeForce GT 640M LE 384 Pipelines is essentially a power optimized GeForce GT 640M and so some modern demanding games are playable at high settings using a 720p resolution though small tweaks will be required to achieve more fluent (30+) FPS.

Looks like this will be in the razor's tablet, pretty expensive for a mediocre card.

This card has the same architecture as mine, except its ddr3. I'v seen people overclock this thing from 500mhz core to 1 ghz core. Probably the most overclockable gpu.
Anyone who wants to overclock this thing, check here

This is a laptop GPU, you can't just buy this. You have to buy a laptop that has this GPU or buy an expensive one that offers the ability to change the GPU but those are very rare :)
