The improved feature set now includes support for up to 4 active displays. Most demanding games of 2013 will run fluently with medium details and resolutions. This places the K1100M in range of the consumer GeForce GT 740M and GT 645M GPUs. The performance is similar to the old Quadro K2000M and clearly superior to the Quadro K1000M. However, due to the missing hot clock of the shader domain, two shaders of a Kepler chip offer similar performance to just one shader of a Fermi chip (as the latter is clocked twice as fast).

Although more shader cores are available in the Kepler architecture as compared to the Fermi design, the Kepler shaders are still expected to be up to twice as power efficient. In the K1100M, both blocks are active leading to the 384 CUDA cores. The GK107 Kepler core offers two shader blocks, called SMX, that are clocked at the same speed as the central core. The Kepler architecture is the successor to the Fermi architecture that first appeared in laptops with the GeForce 400M series. OpenGL performance, for example, should be significantly better than with GeForce graphics cards of similar specifications. The Quadro series offers certified drivers that are optimized for stability and performance in professional applications like CAD or DCC. The K1100M usually comes with 2 GB GDDR5 VRAM clocked at 700 MHz (2800 MHz effective, 44.8 GB/s). As a new feature, PCIe 3.0 is supported for the first time. The Quadro K1100M is built for the Intel Shark Bay generation (Haswell) and is a successor to the Quadro K1000M (Chief River platform). It is a Kepler-based GPU built on the GK107 chip with all 384 shader cores activated and manufactured in 28nm at TSMC. The NVIDIA Quadro K1100M is a DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.3 compatible graphics card for mobile workstations.
