such as in-home theatre or media centre PC setups.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Specifications<\/h3>\n<p>The GT 1010&#8217;s GP108 SKU chip sports 256 CUDA cores running at a base clock frequency of 1,228MHz that can be boosted to 1,468MHz.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, it comes with 2GB of DDR5 video memory on a 64-bit bus interface, and a low thermal design power (TDP) of 30W.<\/p>\n<p>These specifications should slot its performance in between the GT 710 and the GT 1030.<\/p>\n<p>For display output, users will be able to connect to two DVI ports or a single mini HDMI output.<\/p>\n<p>An official release date and pricing for the GT 1010 remain to be revealed.<\/p>\n<p>It is expected to be priced at around the same mark as the GT 710 &#8211; which currently retails for around R1,000 in South Africa.<\/p>\n<p>It is not clear what the card looks like either, although Wccftech <a href=\"https:\/\/wccftech.com\/nvidia-geforce-gt-1010-entry-level-successor-to-the-geforce-710-finally-here\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>stated<\/strong><\/a> it will probably have a similar design as the GeForce 1030 with a single-slit form factor and active cooling setup as seen below and in the headline image above.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/GT-710_new.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-383392\" src=\"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/GT-710_new-640x430.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/GT-710_new.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/GT-710_new-595x400.jpg 595w, https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/GT-710_new-300x202.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Now read: <a href=\"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/hardware\/382272-nvidia-launches-geforce-rtx-3060-price-and-specifications.html\" rel=\"bookmark\">Nvidia launches GeForce RTX 3060 \u2013 Price and specifications<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nvidia has silently launched a new Pascal-based GeForce card for basic graphics workloads called the GT 1010.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":341042,"featured_media":383394,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_facebook_post_id":"","_sma_instagram_post_id":"","_sma_threads_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[68352,68350,30004,3838],"class_list":["post-383378","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hardware","tag-geforce-10-series","tag-geforce-gt-1010","tag-graphics-cards","tag-nvidia"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383378"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/341042"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=383378"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383378\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":383404,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383378\/revisions\/383404"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/383394"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=383378"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=383378"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=383378"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
