GeForce G100 OEM vs GeForce GT 440 Mac Edition
Summary
Reasons to consider GeForce G100 OEM |
| Based on an outdated architecture (Nvidia Tesla), there are no performance optimizations for current games and applications |
| PhysX support, however PhysX performance on newest games may be poor |
Reasons to consider GeForce GT 440 Mac Edition |
| This is a much newer product, it might have better long term support. |
| Higher theoretical gaming performance, based on specifications. |
| Supports PhysX |
| Based on an outdated architecture (Nvidia Fermi), there are no performance optimizations for current games and applications |
HWBench recommends GeForce GT 440 Mac Edition
Based on theoretical specifications.
