Is there a difference between Nvidia GS cards and GT cards?

August 4th, 2016

Hello. I was wondering whats the difference between Nvidia GeForce GT and Nvidia GeForce GS. Because MW2 requires Nvidia 6600 GT minimum and I have a Nvidia GeForce 8400 GS. Will it work?
Answer #1
a GS card is a lower end version of the GT card
but the 8400 is considered “better” than a 6600 so it should work
Answer #2
Yes no problem, the only differences is that the GT version is faster
If lets say you have the 8400GS it will be as fast as the 8300GT
if you compare a number with the letter (the higer the number => the better the card) if you have GT behind it, it is even faster.
Thats most the reason why you will see active fans on a GT version and passive cooling on a GS version.

This is how NVIDIA’s naming convention go:
LE<XT<GS<NORMAL<GTS<GT<GTX<ULTRA. Other names may be used from time to time, but these are the main ones.
An ULTRA/GTX from 1 generation ago is normally equal in power to a GT in it’s following generation.
Example:
6800 ULTRA roughly a 7600GT, 8800GTX roughly a 9800GT.
So no worries, your card will be able to play it. Besides, the 8 series is a great series, introducing DX10 and unified pipelines. 6 series still had seperate dedicated pipelines for vertex and pixel shaders =)
Answer #4
i dont think 8400GS work good on MW2. your VGA will lags. better with 9600GT or Up
Answer #5
Barley anything,shader is the most important in a card,and these are so close,
seeing how you have a 8400 you are well above min.
Answer #6
It will lag, but play at minimum and you’ll be fine.
Answer #7
So i can buy the game but play in minimum and everything should work smoothly?
Answer #8
Ye it will work, but what CPU do you have an amount of ram?
Answer #9
Ye it will work, but what CPU do you have an amount of ram?
I have 2 GB of RAM and E4600 Intel core 2 due 2.40 Ghz,2.40 Ghz, Is that good enough?
Answer #10
Yep.

8400 GS works fine for me with MW2. also can play on full res (1280×800) and med graphics without lag
