Up to now the user has to use a tool to switch between the GPUs. This works only in Windows Vista (and possibly Windows 7).
HybridPower is a technique to choose between the integrated and dedicated graphics core, if performance or battery runtime is needed. 9400M), the GT 240M supports Hybrid-SLI (HybridPower and GeForceBoost). In conjunction with a chipset from Nvidia with integrated graphics (e.g. MPEG-1 still wont be supported, but the decoding of this codec is quite trivial on a CPU.

The Video Processor 4 (VP4) supports the full decoding of H.264, VC-1, and now also MPEG-4 ASP (e.g. The mobile graphics card has a built in video decoder called PureVideo HD with VP4. For these special tasks, the GPU can be noticeably faster than current CPUs. The GeForce GT240M also supports CUDA, DirectX Compute, OpenCL, and PhysiX to use the shaders for other tasks than rendering images (like encoding videos, calculating the physics of a game or mathematical tasks). The unified shaders of Nvidia are 1-dimensional (AMD has 5-dimensional shaders which leads to the higher number of shaders). Therefore, the performance per shader unit should be slightly improved compared to the previous generation.Īs the GeForce 9700M GTS, the GT 240M features 48 stream processors that do the work of the former dedicated pixel- and vertex-shaders. Furthermore, Nvidia has improved the micro-architecture for further power saving and performance increases. The core of the GT230M is internally called GT216 and according to Nvidia based on the current high-end desktop architecture (GTX 200 series). The GT240M was later succeeded by the very similar GT330M (slightly higher clocked). Because of the 48 shader cores, it should perform noticeably better than the GT 130M and due to the 40nm production process the power consumption should stay the same.
It is the successor of the GT 130M and technically a higher clocked GT 230M. The Nividia GeForce GT 240M is a DirectX 10.1 graphics adapter for notebooks based on the GT216 core.
