The Tesla C1060 was a professional graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on April 9th, 2009. Built on the 55 nm process, and based on the GT200B graphics processor, the card supports DirectX 11.1. Even though it supports DirectX 11, the feature level is only 10_0, which can be problematic with many DirectX 11 & DirectX 12 titles. The GT200B graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 470 mm² and 1,400 million transistors. It features 240 shading units, 80 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs. NVIDIA has paired 1,024 MB GDDR3 memory with the Tesla C1060, which are connected using a 512-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 610 MHz, memory is running at 800 MHz.
Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA Tesla C1060 draws power from 1x 6-pin + 1x 8-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 188 W maximum. This device has no display connectivity, as it is not designed to have monitors connected to it. Tesla C1060 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface. The card measures 267 mm in length, 111 mm in width, and features a dual-slot cooling solution.
