The GeForce 7 Series is the seventh generation of Nvidia's GeForce graphics processing units. This was the last series available on AGP cards.
The GeForce 7 supports hardware acceleration for H.264, but this feature was not used on Windows by Adobe Flash Player until the GeForce 8 Series.
The following features are common to all models in the GeForce 7 series except the GeForce 7100, which lacks GCAA:
The 7100 series was introduced on August 30, 2006 and is based on GeForce 6200 Series architecture. This series supports only PCI Express interface. Only one model, the 7100 GS, is available.
Features
The 7100 series supports all of the standard features common to the GeForce 7 Series provided it is using the ForceWare 91.47 driver or later releases, though it lacks opencl/CUDA support, and its implementation of Intellisample 4.0 lacks GCAA.
However it is important to note that 7100 series does not support technologies such as: high dynamic range rendering (HDR) and UltraShadow II.
Although the 7300 LE was originally intended to be the "lowest budget" GPU from the GeForce 7 lineup, the 7100 GS has now taken its place. As it is little more than a revamped version of the GeForce 6200TC, it is designed as a basic PCI-e solution for OEMs to use if the chipset does not have integrated video capabilities. It comes in a PCI Express Graphics Bus and 512MB DDR2 VRAM.
Performance specification
The 7200 series was introduced October 8, 2006 and is based on (G72) architecture. It is designed to offer a low-cost upgrade from integrated graphics solutions. This series supports only PCI Express interface. Only one model, the 7200 GS, is available.
Features
In addition to the standard GeForce 7 Series features, the 7200 series supports the following features:
However it is important to note that 7200 series does not support Scalable Link Interface (SLI).
