SPARKLE Launches World's First GeForce GT 240/GT220 Graphics Cards With Low Profile Design

	World First Low Profile Graphics Cards Based on GeForce GT240/GT220 Graphics Chips Consummately designed low profile, the PCB height of the SPARKLE GeForce GT240/GT220 Low Profile Graphics Cards are 6cm,only half the height of ordinary Graphic Cards with full profile design, which makes the SPARKLE GeForce GT240/GT220 Low Profile Graphics Cards to be the best partners for HTPC. HTPC enthusiasts don't need to worry about the inconvenience caused by narrow space HTPC chassis and full profile designed graphics cards. With low profile design, the SPARKLE GeForce GT240/GT220 Low Profile Graphics Cards not only can easily meet the HD video playback and DX10 gaming demand from HTPC users, but also can easily satisfy the requirements from SSF, mini-chassis and industry PCs which demand compact and practical graphics cards.

	40nm Process Taking the performance increase into account, SPARKLE GeForce GT240/GT220 Low Profile Graphics Cards features 40nm chip process from TSMC, this new process let SPARKLE GeForce GT240/GT220 Low Profile Graphics Cards to be the first batch graphics cards on market to adopt the NVIDIA new 40nm graphics chip. Thanks to advanced 40nm process, now It features much higher transistor density than before, bringing a greater number of stream processors than its predecessor.

	Comprehensive Upgrading the 3D Effectiveness of the Previous Generation of GeForce 9 Compared with the previous generation of GeForce 9600GT/9500GT graphics cards, SPARKLE GeForce GT240/GT220 Low Profile graphics cards have more stream processors. The amount exaltation of the stream processors can brings amazing floating point processing power for good gaming performance and powerful performance ever from the unit area of the chip! According to the test done by SPARKLE, the average performance of the SPARKLE GeForce GT240 Low Profile Graphics Cards is 10% more than the GeForce 9600 GT reference boards, the average performance of the SPARKLE GeForce GT220 Low Profile Graphics Cards is 74% more than the GeForce 9500 GT reference boards.

	1GB Large-capacity High Speed Video Memory Today‘s game, such as Crysis, Alone in the Dark 5, Stalker: clear sky, they normally use a large number of bump texture, transparent texture to describe faces of characters and render realistic gaming scenes, so these games put higher demands on the capacities of video memory. The current situation demands at least 512 MB video memory to run these games. The SPARKLE GeForce GT240/GT220 Low Profile Graphics Cards come with incredible large 1GB DDR3 high speed video memory can let users to pass the 3DMark Vantage High Test which strictly demand at least 512MB video memory, providing much more detail information to mainstream users for better understanding its graphics capability, letting gamers to enjoy the pleasure brought by 3D games.

	Silent Cooling System With 27.3 dB Noise Control The SPARKLE GeForce GT240/GT220 Low Profile Graphics Cards are equipped with exquisitely made low-speed active cooling system. The cooling fan uses high-density aluminum heatsink covering the GPU / memory / MOS circuits, providing a comprehensive cooling solution to the graphics cards. The working noise is controlled only 27.3 dB, it makes truly quiet working environment.

	All Solid Capacitors Design The capacitors are key factor of power supply on the system and it has great impact on system stability. At present, solid capacitors and electrolytic capacitors both store electricity and discharge it when needed. According to factual test, any operation under high frequency and temperature, solid capacitors are able to supply more stable current than electrolytic capacitors and strengthen longer lifespan. Solid capacitors contain zero risk of leaking or exploding. The SPARKLE GeForce GT240/GT220 Low Profile Graphics Cards use all solid capacitors as a true factor of products quality.
