MSI GeForce GTX 950 2GD5T OCV3 2GB graphics card

Entry 2GB 128-bit gaming GPU

The MSI GeForce GTX 950 2GD5T OCV3 is a 2GB graphics card built on the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 900 series architecture. It targets 1080p gamers and multi-monitor users who need a dedicated GPU with modern display outputs. The card connects through a PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot and supports DirectX 12 and OpenGL 4.5.

Moving up from integrated graphics or GT 900 series

Moving up from integrated graphics or an older GT 900 series card adds 768 CUDA cores running at a 1076 MHz base clock and a 1253 MHz boost clock. The jump is worth it when you want hardware-accelerated DirectX 12 features, SLI multi-GPU support, or three simultaneous displays via HDMI, DisplayPort and Dual-Link DVI-I.

2GB GDDR5 frame buffer headroom

The 2GB GDDR5 memory on a 128-bit bus at 6600 MHz effective clock handles 1080p textures and up to 4096 x 2160 resolution output. It runs out when modern titles demand more than 2GB of VRAM for high texture settings or when memory bandwidth limits frame rates at higher detail levels.
