Explore strange new virtual worlds; blow away exciting civilizations, and boldly destroy places that have never been destroyed before! NIVIDA's GTX285 boasts a 2nd Generation 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 GTX285 supports 3-way SLI to seriously crank your performance options by using up to three graphics cards for insane flow rates. Support for DirectX 10, OpenGL 2.1, NVIDIA's PureVideoHD, CUDA and PhysX are built in to render even the most intense environmental effects in the latest game titles, and bring a brand new video experience to PC users.
The card's core clock runs at 680MHz, relieving your CPU of pixel crunching duty. Data surges through the GTX285's 240 stream processors fed by 1GB of 512-bit 2500MHz 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, or output to your home HDTV via the HDMI connectors (DVI-to-HDMI adapter is included) for maximum flexibility.
The GTX285 delivers fluid frame rates and HD video with solid performance. If your motherboard can take it, the GTX285 can dish it out.
