Crush your enemies and see them driven before you: that is what’s best. The factory super-clocked GeForce 8800Ultra video card from EVGA helps make it happen. The core clock is boosted from 612MHz to 655MHz and the memory clock at 1,125MHz (2,250MHz effective) instead of 1080MHz. It includes DirectX 10 support for crushing superiority in even the most modern games. When they start start to catch up, slip another card in and watch SLI mode almost double your video power.
Output is through 2 dual-link DVI-I ports for up to 2 monitors, or a monitor and a TV. If you haven’t jumped to flat panel monitors, or if they don’t have DVI ports, you’re still okay with two DVI to VGA adapters. There is also an S-Video port for HDTV/component video as well as S-Video signals. The DVI ports are HDCP capable so you can watch HD-DVD and Blu-ray discs in full HD mode.
NVIDIA PureVideo HD technology combines high-definition video engineering for amazing clarity with smooth video, accurate color and precise image scaling. Built on its own core, it provides the great picture and movies with minimal CPU tie-up. The advanced shader processors deliver Quantum Effects Technology, a new level of physics effects rendered on the GPU. These combine to deliver stunning visual landscapes while allowing the CPU to focus on the game engine and AI. Get one of these, or even two, and there'll be no more excuse for losing!
- NVIDIA Unified Architecture with GigaThread TechnologyThe fully-unified shader core dynamically allocates processing power to geometry, vertex, physics and pixel shading operations, delivering incredibly true-to-life 3D graphics. In addition, the massively multi-threaded architecture supports thousands of independent, simultaneous threads, providing extreme processing efficiency in advanced, next generation shader programs.
- Full Microsoft DirectX 10 SupportThe DirectX 10 GPU with full Shader Model 4.0 support delivers unparalleled levels of graphics realism and film-quality effects.
- NVIDIA Lumenex EngineThe NVIDIA Lumenex Engine supports 128-bit and 64-bit floating point HDR with up to 16X anti-aliasing, delivering vividly realistic lighting effects while obliterating “jaggies”.
- NVIDIA SLI TechnologyDelivers up to 2X the performance of a single GPU configuration for unmatchable gaming experiences. The must-have feature for PCI Express graphics, NVIDIA SLI technology allows two graphics cards to run in parallel and dramatically scales performance on today's hottest games.
- NVIDIA PureVideo HD TechnologyThe combination of high-definition video decoding acceleration and post-processing delivers unprecedented picture clarity, smooth video, accurate color and precise image scaling for all video content, especially movies.
- Built for Microsoft Windows VistaBuilt for Windows Vista, NVIDIA's fourth-generation GPU architecture offers users the best possible experience using the Windows Aero 3D graphical user interface available in Microsoft latest operating system.
