The company SPARKLE Computer Co. decided to surprise igoromanov heavy issuance of new and custom to perform a modified version of the graphic adapter NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 based on the established 55-nm chip technology G200-103-B2 with 216 stream processors, which has twice the on-board GDDR3 memory with 448-bit interface equal to 1792 MB. As reported in the published official press release, the court offered two consumer versions of this solution, obtaining indices SXX2601792D3S-VP and SXX2601792D3S-VM. This indicates that both variants are formed on the blue PCB alternative design, which differs from the reference enhanced power subsystem with a large number of phases, as well as the use of only high-quality capacitors with solid electrolyte. Thus, according to the creators were able to significantly improve the stability of products, as well as significantly improve their upper potential. In addition, the effective diversion of excess heat from the main hot spots of each of the accelerator was used at the same time more powerful and less noisy dvuhslotovaya system of active air-cooling the original design. New items are made by bus PCI Express 2. 0 х16, compatible with DirectX 10. 0 Shader Model 4. 0, and support technologies such as NVIDIA PhysX Technology, NVIDIA PureVideo HD Technology, NVIDIA CUDA Technology, and NVIDIA SLI Technology. As for the frequency, they constitute the 576/1242/2214 MHz frequency (kernel/Shader units/memory), while the communication opportunities presented video removed on the back cover of the two ports DVI. On the newly perceived value of products and the likely timing of the start of their massive sales so far nothing is known.
