ECS released GeFORCE 8800GT Dual Turbo version graphics card with ARCTIC S1 cooling solution that brings new noise free experience and wonderful ventilated potency for enthusiast gamers. ECS 8800GT Dual Turbo Version Graphics Card enables better air flow so therefore it removes the heat more effectively.
Furthermore, ECS 8800GT Dual Turbo equipped with turbo modules, which consist of dual high performance low-noise fans, and boosts up the GPU and memory overclocking ability and more graphics performance than ever. For illustration of the power of this product we will use example of GeForce 8800GT graphics card with NVIDIA fan and ECS 8800GT Dual Turbo Version Graphics Card.
Temperature tests showed that the temperature of ECS 8800GT Dual Turbo Version Graphics Card is greatly lower than N8800GT with NIVIDIA fan: temperature went from 91°C down to 73°C in the 3DMark05. Furthermore, after adding Turbo module, the temperature of ECS N8800GT rapidly drops to 64°C. |

 HardOCP editors confirmed rumors about Nvidia nForce 680i lack of support for Intel's upcoming 45nm Yorkfield processors by contacting Nvidia directly. Nvidia reps said that 680i MCP fully support Penryn family including the quad-core Yorkfield processors, but in order to get it working a motherboard circuit change is required. In other words, owners of 680i-based boards will not be able to use Yorkfield quad-core processors which should retail in January.
If you can't live without SLI and Yorkfield, you'll be able to solve your problems simply by buying a new board. Nice move there, Nvidia. |
