NVIDIA
SLI (Scalable Link Interface)
NVIDIA SLI™ (Scalable Link Interface) technology is a revolutionary
approach to scalability and increased performance. NVIDIA SLI takes advantage
of the increased bandwidth of the PCI Express™ bus architecture,
and features hardware and software innovations within NVIDIA GPUs (graphics
processing units) and NVIDIA nForce4 MCPs (media and communications processors).
Together the NVIDIA SLI patent-pending technologies work seamlessly to
deliver heart-pounding PC performance. And depending on the application,
NVIDIA SLI can deliver as much as 2x the performance of a single GPU configuration
for unparalleled gaming experiences.
NVIDIA
Unified Architecture
Fully unified shader core dynamically allocates processing power to geometry,
vertex, physics, or pixel shading operations, delivering an incredibly
true-to-life 3D graphics.
NVIDIA
Lumenex™ Engine
Support for 128-bit and 64-bit floating point HDR with up to 16x anti-aliasing
delivering vividly realistic lighting effects while obliterating ‘jaggies’.
NVIDIA
Quantum Effects™ Technology
Advanced shader processors architected for physics computation deliver
amazing performance and visual effects such as smoke, fire, and explosions.
Shader
Model 4.0 Technology
Get your box geared up for the future of games with blazing fast shader
performance and watch your characters sweat with Shader Model 4.0.
NVIDIA
PureVideo HD Technology
Available on HD DVDs and Blu-ray discs, high-definition movies are bringing
an exciting new video experience to PC users. NVIDIA® PureVideo™
HD technology lets you enjoy cinematic-quality HD DVD and Blu-ray movies
with low CPU utilization and power consumption, allowing higher quality
movie playback and picture clarity.
High
Dynamic Range (HDR)
High dynamic-range(HDR) lighting effects bring environments to life for
a truly immersive experience. It takes advantage of the subtle light,
texture, and color intricacies to create incredibly realistic environments.
Windows
Vista Ready
Windows Vista is the first operating system to require a GPU (Graphics
Processing Unit) to realize the best experience possible.
PCI Express
2.0 Support PCI Express Base 2.0 specification doubles the interconnect bit rate
from 2.5 GT/s to 5 GT/s in a seamless and compatible manner. The performance
boost to 5 GT/s is by far the most important feature of the PCI Express
2.0 specifications. It effectively increases the aggregate bandwidth of
a 16-lane link to approximately 16 GB/s. The higher bandwidth will allow
product designers to implement narrower interconnect links to achieve
high performance. (backwards compatible with PCI Express)

This Card is really a great value. I used this in my new build; AMD 6000+ 3.1 GHZ, 2GB OCZ platinum RAM, Evga 590 SLi board, Thermaltake tsunami case, BFG 650 watt PSU. I can play Half life 2 and CSS at MAX setting 1680X1050 with no problems. Crysis will play at Max but can lag so i play at ''Gamer'' ( one step below MAX ). Over all this card is very good. The fan is loud but XFX will send you a resistor to quiet it down. I don't use it due to gaming but really did quiet it down.

Great Value and great performance for the budget. currently running two of these in SLI. The only problem is that the fans on these are always on 100% which makes my rig sound like a jet engine. Looking to replace stock fans with silent VGA coolers.

I upgraded my system recently from a geforce6800 gt to this card! Fantabulous!!! I can play almost any game flawlessly and the price cant be beat!! So now I just bought a second one for SLI mode while I am playing any game for double the performance. The only drawback is that the fan is a little loud than what I am used to but overall great performance at a great price!
