About NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 is a GeForce 700-series GPU from NVIDIA, released in 2014 and now marked end-of-life. It is built on the Maxwell architecture using the GM107 chip, fabricated by TSMC on a 28 nm process. The die contains 1,870 million transistors across 148 mm², for a transistor density of 12.6M / mm². The card launched at an MSRP of 119 USD. It succeeds the GeForce 600 series and was succeeded by the GeForce 900 series. The database records an average benchmark score of 7203 and a 39th-percentile ranking among all GPUs.
Benchmark Performance
The database lists an average benchmark score of 7203 alongside three Geekbench subtests. The GTX 750 returns 9300 in OpenCL, 8034 in Vulkan, and 4274 in Metal. The OpenCL result is the strongest of the three, while the Metal result is the weakest. The aggregate score of 7203 sits between those figures, reflecting a card whose performance varies noticeably across different API workloads. This composite score places the GTX 750 in the 39th percentile of all GPUs in the database.
The nearest-rival comparisons show a tightly clustered group. The AMD Radeon Vega 8 Mobile has the same average score of 7203, so the deltaPct is 0. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680M scores 7193, and the GTX 750 is 0.1% ahead. The NVIDIA Quadro 5000 scores 7315, putting the GTX 750 1.5% behind. The NVIDIA T600 scores 7068, leaving the GTX 750 1.9% ahead. The largest positive delta in the group is 1.9%, while the largest negative delta is 1.5%, so all four nearest rivals sit close to the GTX 750's own average.
The core configuration helps explain the score. The GPU runs at a 1020 MHz base clock and a 1085 MHz boost clock. It has 512 shading units, 32 texture mapping units, and 16 ROPs. The listed FP32 throughput is 1,111.0 GFLOPS, with a pixel rate of 17.36 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 34.72 GTexel/s. These figures are in line with a card that draws only 55 W and uses a single slot.
Memory Subsystem
The GTX 750 is equipped with 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory. The memory interface is 128 bit wide, and the memory clock is 1253 MHz, listed as 5 Gbps effective. Peak bandwidth comes to 80.19 GB/s. For high-resolution workloads, the 1 GB capacity is the most visible limiting factor. A 1 GB frame buffer can hold a frame, but larger textures and high-resolution render targets can push past that capacity. The 128-bit bus also caps the bandwidth path, though the 5 Gbps effective memory speed gives the subsystem more throughput than the raw clock alone suggests. The 80.19 GB/s bandwidth is paired with a GPU that has 512 shading units, 32 texture units, and 16 ROPs, making the memory pipe proportionate to the compute configuration.
