unified architecture provides strong shader, texture and geometry
processing capability, delivering perfect gaming quality and effects.
The SPARKLE GeForce
8800 GT Cool-pipe 3
graphics card is specially optimized for some
most-anticipated games released this year, such as Call of Duty 4: Modern
Warfare, Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts, Crysis, Gears of War, Hellgate:
London, Huxley, Lost Planet: Extreme Condition and World In Conflict.
The
SPARKLE GeForce
8800 GT Cool-pipe 3
graphics card supports NVIDIA SLI, 16x full screen HDR
+ AA, volumetric smoke, depth of field, motion blur, stream out, skinned
Instancing, soft particles and real time geometric deformation technologies,
to deliver ultra-realistic combat explosions, smoke effects and true 3D dust
effects in these most-anticipated games.
65nm process lets
SPARKLE
GeForce 8800 GT Cool-pipe 3 graphics card to bring less
heat volatilization than 90nm and 80nm
products on market. Further more, SPARKLE GeForce 8800 GT Cool-pipe 3 graphics
card is
is equipped with heat-pipe-based passive cooling system using high
technology. Compared with conventional HSF, this noiseless passive cooling
solution features higher throughput thanks to high efficiency heat-pipe
optimized for mass heat volatilization. It has high performance
thermal compound ensures optimal thermal dissipation even after years of
use.
The SPARKLE GeForce
8800 GT Cool-pipe 3
graphics card features the newest PureVideo™ HD VP2 technology which
leverages the revolutionary third generation video-processing engine in
GeForce 8880 GTCool-pipe 3 graphic chip to deliver the highest-quality playback of HD
DVD and Blu-ray movies on high-end PCs. The new programmable video
processing engine takes on all of the high definition H.264 HD video
decoding, freeing the CPU to perform other tasks and significantly reducing
power consumption, heat, and noise.
“The
SPARKLE
GeForce 8800 GT Cool-pipe 3
makes high-end gamers' dreams of 0dB DirectX
10 gaming cards come
true. Now they can get extreme
DirectX 9 and DirectX 10 gaming performance without a whiney GPU cooler, or
add cumbersome water cooling system to reduce noise levels." Said Kevin Wang, sales director of SPARKLE Computer Co., Ltd. "The
SPARKLE
GeForce 8800 GT Cool-pipe 3 graphic card unites
passive cooling with powerful 3D acceleration, bringing incredible silent
working environment for high-end users!"
