XFX GeForce 8800 GT Video Card - Alpha Dog Edition, 512MB DDR3, PCI
Express 2.0, SLI Ready, (Dual Link) Dual DVI, HDTV, Variable Fan Speed
Redefine your gaming reality with the XFX GeForce 8800 GT 512MB PCI Express
2.0 graphics card featuring the world's first DirectX® 10 GPU and a powerful
unified architecture that delivers an incredibly true-to-life gaming experience.
Power through games at record speeds and charge through game maps with vividly
realistic, sun-up to sun-down HDR lighting effects while steering clear of mind-blowing
physics effects such as explosions, fire, and smoke. And when you're not destroying
the enemy, relax watching your favorite movies with NVIDIA PureVideo™ HD technology.
| 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’. |
| Microsoft DirectX 10 Geometry Shaders
Dynamic geometry creation smoothes surfaces and enables incredibly detailed environments, shadows, and effects.
|
| 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)
