Description

• Gaming

  Up to a 3x performance increase over the comparable 8 series GPU - NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT. Double your graphics power with NVIDIA SLI technology and get ultra-fast data transfer with PCIe 2.0.

• HD video

  Astounding Blu-ray movie playback with reduced CPU utilization and lower power consumption. Spectacular picture clarity and vibrant color with advanced video processing technology. Easy management of photos and videos in an optimal 3D environment.

• Advanced computing

  View crisp, vibrant photos with unprecedented color clarity thanks to NVIDIA Digital Vibrance Control. Connect 2 LCD displays for increased productivity.

• Full Microsoft DirectX 10 support

  DirectX 10 GPU with full Shader Model 4.0 support delivers unparalleled levels of graphics realism and film-quality effects.

• PCI Express 2.0 support

  Designed to run perfectly with the PCI Express 2.0 bus architecture, offering a future-proofing bridge to tomorrow's most bandwidth-hungry games and 3D applications by maximizing the 5 GT/s PCI Express 2.0 bandwidth (twice that of first generation PCI Express). PCI Express 2.0 products are fully backwards compatible with existing PCI Express motherboards for the broadest support.

• GigaThread technology

  Massively multi-threaded architecture supports thousands of independent, simultaneous threads, providing extreme processing efficiency in advanced, next generation shader programs.

• NVIDIA Lumenex engine

  Delivers stunning image quality and floating point accuracy with ultra-fast frame rates.

• 16x Anti-aliasing technology

  Lightning fast, high-quality anti-aliasing at up to 16x sample rates obliterates jagged edges.

• 128-bit floating point High Dynamic-Range (HDR) lighting

  Twice the precision of prior generations for incredibly realistic lighting effects - now with support for anti-aliasing.

• NVIDIA Quantum Effects technology

  Advanced shader processors architected for physics computation enable a new level of physics effects to be simulated and rendered on the GPU - all while freeing the CPU to run the game engine and artificial intelligence (AI).

• NVIDIA GeForce Unified Driver Architecture (UDA)

  Delivers a proven record of compatibility, reliability, and stability with the widest range of games and applications. GeForce drivers provide the best out-of-box experience for every user and deliver continuous performance and feature updates over the life of NVIDIA GeForce GPUs.

• OpenGL 2.1 optimizations and support

  Ensures top-notch compatibility and performance for OpenGL applications.

• Dual Dual-link DVI support

  Able to drive the industries largest and highest resolution flat-panel displays up to 2560 x 1600 and with support for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP).

• Discrete, Programmable video processor

  NVIDIA PureVideo is a discrete programmable processing core in NVIDIA GPUs that provides superb picture quality and ultra-smooth movies with 100% offload of H.264 video decoding from the CPU and significantly reduced power consumption.

• Hardware decode acceleration

  Provides ultra-smooth playback of H.264, VC-1, WMV and MPEG-2 HD and SD movies.

• Dynamic contrast enhancement and color stretch

  Provides spectacular picture clarity with frame-by-frame optimization.

• Advanced spatial-temporal de-interlacing

  Sharpens HD and standard definition interlaced content on progressive displays, delivering a crisp, clear picture that rivals high-end home-theater systems.

• High-quality scaling

  Enlarges lower resolution movies and videos to HDTV resolutions, while maintaining a clear, clean image. Also provides downscaling of videos, including high-definition, while preserving image detail.

• Inverse telecine

  Recovers original film images from filmsconverted-to-video (DVDs, 1080i HD content), providing more accurate movie playback and superior picture quality.

• Bad edit correction

  When videos are edited, the edits can disrupt the normal 3:2 or 2:2 pulldown cadence. PureVideo uses advanced processing techniques to detect poor edits, recover the original content, and display perfect picture detail frame after frame for smooth, natural looking video.

• Noise reduction

  Improves movie image quality by removing unwanted artifacts.

• Edge enhancement

  Sharpens movie images by providing higher contrast around lines and objects.

• Dual stream decode acceleration

  Hardware acceleration for HD picture-in-picture enables a complete HD movie playback experience.

• Integrated SD and HD TV output

  World-class TV-out functionality via Composite, S-Video, Component or DVI connections. Supports resolutions up to 1080i/1080p, depending on connection type and TV capability.
