Beyond Your Imagination
With Calibre P980X Graphics Card, Gaming and video watching
capabilities are taken to the next level.
The Calibre P980X Graphics
Card
is overclocked out of box,
with 734MHz core speed ,2232MHz 512MB GDDR3 memory speed and
128 screaming fast cores each running at a record high of
1836MHz, this is the world's most powerful single GeForce 9800
graphic card. And with features such as picture-in-picture
content for an interactive movie experience and color stretch
video processing for breathtaking picture clarity, this graphics
card takes you further than your expectations.
Untouchable Techniques
Unlike reference designed GeForce
9800 GTX Graphics Cards on market, the Calibre P980X Graphics Card is exquisitely made with
polished components, such as high-quality MOS circuits, and
high-quality low esr solid capacitors. It features
innovative unified architecture, dynamically allocates processing
power to geometry, vertex, physics, or pixel shading operations,
delivering up to times the gaming performance of prior
generation GPUs. Built
upon technologies such as NVIDIA Lumenex Engine,
providing support for DirectX 10 Shader Model 4.0, NVIDIA Quantum Effects
technology for physics computation and GigaThread
Technology for extreme processing efficiency in advanced, next generation
shader programs.
Elaborate
Design
The Calibre P980X Graphics Card
offers new features for next generation data transportation
standard, it is one of the world's first PCI Express 2.0 graphic
cards, which can maximize the usage of 5GT/s bandwidth ( doubled
than 2.5GT/s PCI Express 1.1 can provide) provided by PCI
Express 2.0 standard, to be full ready for future games and
applications which have rigorous requirements on bandwidth.
The
Calibre P980X Graphics Card
is also compatible with with present PCI Express 1.1
motherboards with maximal convenience.
“With the Calibre P980X Graphics Card, now bunches of DirectX
10 games on market can be played at the highest resolution
possible, with all the graphics settings cranked to the max, and
antialiasing applied for the first time.."Said Sidney Chen,
product manager of SPARKLE Computer Co., Ltd. ”Its out of box overclcoked speed offers an intense gaming experience with
stunning special effects and high-definition visuals for the
hottest holiday PC games, such as: Crysis, Hellgate: London,
Gears of War, Unreal Tournament 3, and Call of Duty 4, along
with full support for current DirectX 9 games."
