EVGA, in its continuous pursuit to deliver quality graphics and video cards, has used NVIDIA’s GeForce 9800GT GPU, which improves images and the whole gaming experience. It also includes HybridPower feature for optimal power management.

EVGA GeForce 9800 GT Akimbo Video Card Each core is clocked at an ultra-fast 1.5GHz and its frame buffer interface runs at 900MHz. This GPU allows for richer and more immersive game environments and is designed for the PCI Express 2.0 bus architecture to deliver fast data transfer speeds for even the most demanding games and 3D applications.

High-end games are further improved with Microsoft DirectX 10 Geometry Shaders, which smoothes surfaces and shows environments, shadows, and effects even in minute details. It’s also improved with Quantum Effects technology, which gives superb visual effects such as smoke, fire, and explosions.

The video card benefits from a slew of NVIDIA technologies, including its Scalable Link Interface (SLI) that optimizes PCI Express bus architecture and features hardware and software innovations. Depending on the application, SLI can deliver as much as twice the performance of a single GPU configuration for unparalleled gaming experience.

EVGA GeForce includes support for NVIDIA’s PhysX technology, enabling a totally new class of physical gaming interaction for a more dynamic and realistic experience with GeForce. Through PhysX technology, the video card improves human character behaviors and atmospheric weather effects for a more engaging play. Its Lumenex Engine, also bundled with the NVIDIA GPU, supports 128-bit and 64-bit floating point HDR with up to 16 times anti-aliasing to give you vibrant and realistic lighting effects while obliterating ‘jaggies.’

Incorporating the latest in 9 series graphics technology, the EVGA 9800GT video cards bring the best performance to price ratio available in the market. Another important feature is the CUDA technology and the new CUDA runtime for Windows Vista. You are able to offload the most intensive processing tasks from your CPU to your GPU.

The Windows Vista-certified video card includes two dual-link DVI and one HDTV port. It supports OpenGL 2.1 for high-performance graphics. It supports 400MHz RAMDAC, maximum resolution of up to 2560×1600-pixel digital resolution, 600 MHz core clocking and 256-bit memory interface. And it accommodates 1500MHz shader clocking and has 112 stream processors.
