Taipei, Taiwan – October 12, 2009 - SPARKLE Computer Co., Ltd., the professional VGA card manufacturer and supplier, today introduced the SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card. Based on 40nm GeForce 210 graphics chip,SPARKLE 210 Graphics Card with more compact size to bring impressive graphics processing power for entry-level users and HTPC enthusiasts.

• Advanced Rendering Architecture
  Based on NVIDIA’s latest generation architecture, the SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card adopts innovative unified architecture, dynamically allocates processing power to geometry, vertex, physics, or pixel shading operations, delivering superior graphics processing power. Built upon technologies such as NVIDIA Lumenex Engine, providing support for DirectX 10.1 Shader Model 4.0, NVIDIA Quantum Effects technology for physics computation and GigaThread Technology for extreme processing efficiency in advanced, next generation shader programs.

• 40nm Process
  Taking the power consumption and performance increase into account, SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card features 40nm chip process from TSMC. The advanced 40nm process significantly reduces the power consumption and GPU core temperature of  the SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Cards, making them to be  energy-saving products and protecting our enviroments. Thanks to the 40nm process,  the SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card feature higher working speeds, the core speeds are raised to 589MHz, the shader clocks are raised to 1402MHz, these speeds exaltation can brings amazing floating point processing power for good gaming performance and powerful performance ever from the unit area of the chip!

• 512MB Large 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. SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card come with 512MB large DDR2 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 users for better understanding its graphics capability.

• Low Profile Design
  Consummately designed low profile, the PCB height of SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card is 6cm,only half the height of ordinary Graphic Cards with full profile design, which makes SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card to be the best partners for HTPC. HTPC enthusiasts don't need to worry about the inconvenience caused by narrow space chassis and full profile designed graphics cards. With low profile design, SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card 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 graphic cards.

• Cooling System
  Exquisitely made cooling fans which have high performance thermal compound ensures optimal thermal dissipation even after years of use.

• Experience Vivid DX10.1 Graphics
  Experience the vivid DX10.1 gaming graphics at good frame rates, or go beyond traditional 3D graphics experience , Stereoscopic 3D, and lightning fast video and image processing. All you need is the SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card with full DirectX 10.1 and full Shader Model 4.1 support, delivering unparalleled levels of graphics realism and film-quality effects.

• Premium Windows 7 Experience
  Graphics cards are an essential element of today’s PCs, enabling more visual and more interactive experiences. As a leading manufacturer in graphics cards market, SPARKLE worked closely with Microsoft on the development of Windows 7 to ensure that its graphics cards take full advantage of the great new features and functionality. If you use your PC to enhance photos, watch or edit videos, play games, or if you simply desire a fast and efficient graphical interface, SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card will surely delight your senses and offer a premium experience for Windows 7.

• Direct Compute and OpenCL Support
  SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card fully supports Direct Compute, Microsoft’s GPU computing API and OpenCL GPU computing API made and released by Khronos Group.  Direct Compute and OpenCL let any application tap into the vast gigaflops of GPU computing power previously available only to graphics applications.

• 2nd Generation Pure Video  HD
  With 1080p support HDMI output, SPARKLE GeForce 210 Graphics Card has High-definition video decoder and post-processor which delivering unprecedented picture clarity, smooth video and accurate color for movies and video. Hardware decode acceleration provides ultra-smooth playback of H.264, VC-1, WMV, DivX, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 HD and SD movies without the need for a dual or quad-core CPU. Dual-stream hardware acceleration supports picture-in-picture content for the ultimate interactive Blu-ray and HD DVD movie experience.

• NVIDIA™CUDA Technology
  CUDA technology unlocks the power of the GPU's processor cores to accelerate the most demanding system tasks such as video transcoding delivering up to 7x performance over traditional CPUs.
