Nvidia drops its first PCIe 4.0 graphics in the form of the GeForce MX450. As its name suggest, the new GPU is catered for mobility, aiming to replace the previous MX350 graphics for laptops.
With this newly added support for PCI Express 4.0 and GDDR6 graphics memory, Nvidia is certain that the GeForce MX 450 will deliver an even faster performance than the previous MX350. That means faster photo editing, video editing and gaming.
| Memory Interface support | GDDR5 and GDDR6 |
|---|---|
| NVIDIA Optimus support | Yes |
| NVIDIA GPU Boost support | Yes |
| NVIDIA Game Ready Drivers support | Yes |

Specifications are still cloudy though, so we don’t know what to expect – except that it is faster than the MX350.
What we know though is that it will feature two sub-models featuring GDDR5 and GDDR6 memory. The MX450 also works with the NVIDIA Optimus technology to deliver balance between battery life and performance.
Laptops with GeForce MX450 will be available starting in October from leading laptop OEM partners.
