NVIDIA's 200 series of graphics cards combines cutting edge technology and advanced capabilities together to provide best-in-class performance. The GTX260 boasts 2nd Generation NVIDIA Unified Architecture solution for all your most demanding graphic needs. It’s Microsoft Vista ready and equipped with a PCI-Express 2.0 interface. The GTX260 supports 3-way SLI to seriously crank your performance options by using up to three graphics cards to for insane flow rates.
The card's core clock runs at 576MHz, relieving your CPU of pixel crunching duty. Data surges through the GTX260's 216 stream processors fed by 896MB of 448-bit 2000MHz GDDR3 memory. Twin dual-linked DVI and 400 MHz RAMDAC lets you display 2560 x 1600 resolution video and graphics on even the largest monitors. Support for DirectX 10, OpenGL 2.1, NVIDIA's PureVideoHD, CUDA and PhysX-ready are built in to render even the most intense environmental effects or HD DVD video with brilliant clarity.
The GTX260 delivers fluid frame rates and HD video with solid performance. If your motherboard can take it, the GTX260 can dish it out.

Good Buy!
- Pros: I just received the card today. I haven't installed the card yet, but I have had the chance to inventory the contents. Without doubt, it is a 55nm core 216. To my surprise, the install disk has a very recent driver (182.06). It came with a 4-pin molex to 6-pin pci-e adapter, a D-Sub/VGA adapter, and the TV out.
Also included was full version BONUS software-
3D mark vantage (advanced serial number)
Farcry2 (full version disk)
Mirrors Edge (free download coupon)
Easy $100+ of free bonus software (no doubt for a limited time), which makes this card an outstanding purchase. To top all this off, it comes with the XFX Double LIFETIME Warranty (requires on-line registration within 30 days).
- Cons: The only cons I could find-
No S/PDIF cable or HDMI adapter (this is minor to me, is inexpensive to get if you need them, and has no effect on the card itself)
- Other Thoughts: I have to admit, the bundled software was one of the biggest factors I chose this model. If you are thinking about getting this card, I wouldn't wait too long if you care about the bundled software. I'm sure it is for a limited time only. The coupon for Mirrors Edge, that was included in my box, expires on 06/01/09.
I know The GTX 275 will be out in a matter of days, but do not underestimate the GTX 260. Not only is it likely to be a better value than the 275, the 260 is powerful enough to scream through most games, and doesn't seem to be very far behind the 280 in performance as it is.
Make sure you account for the size of this card, it is a monster (approx. 10.5"-11" sorry I have not measured it)
216 Core
- Pros: I just contacted a Rep from XFX customer support, and the Guy Confirmed (Actually took the Heat Sink off the card) that this is in fact a 216 55nm Card.
The XFX website doesn't really give the most accurate info on there card, especially the International ones.
- Cons: N/A
- Other Thoughts: Going to purchase it, and get back with some feed back.

Great graphics
- Pros: Great card, very nice graphics. Nvidia always rocks for me. Drivers loaded right up.
- Cons: VERY large card!! Can't over emphisize that. Had to move my hard drive cage to accomadate it and I have a very large gameing tower! Runs a little warm but with good fans and ventilation no problem.
- Other Thoughts: Was uncertain of the ddr3 and pci 2 x16 as I have the pci express x16 slots and am running 8 gig of ddr2 but everything worked out ok. More explanation of card length and compatability would have been helpfull.
WOW
- Pros: This is a great card! No problems with installation, fits right in place! installed cd and it downloaded its drivers! Easiest card ever!!! Thanks XFX! I got great performance and no headaches for under 200 bucks!!!
- Cons: Its big.. so make sure you have room.
- Other Thoughts: THIS CARD ROCKS!!!
fair? hmm...
- Pros: good graphic card, I assume?
- Cons: 1. Too big.
2. Somehow this VGA's temp is kind of hot....
