GeForce® 8800 GTS 512MB DDR3 XXX (PV-T88G-YDD4)
GeForce® 8800 GTS 512MB DDR3 Standard (PV-T88G-YDF4)
GeForce® 8800 GTS 640MB DDR3 Standard (PV-T80G-THF4)

GeForceTM 8800 GTS

The 8800 GTS 512MB (256 bit) is designed for the true gaming enthusiast. This card is HDTV-, SLI-, HDCP- and RoHS ready, giving users world-class TV-out functionality and the ability to double their performance capabilities. It also features Dual Dual-Link DVI Technology that enables it to support digital output of up to 1560X1600 on two LCD monitors.

GPU Clock MHz
The main attributes of the GPU are the core clock rate, which typically ranges from 250 MHz to 1200 MHz in modern cards.
500 - 678 MHz
Shader Clock (MHz)
The number of pipelines (vertex and fragment shaders), which translate a 3D image characterized by vertices and lines into a 2D image formed by pixels.
1188 - 1728 MHz
Stream Processors
Through the use of stream processing, computer benefit from the ability to transparently access a large number of 'cores' (or, computational units) on a chip without having to separately manage each and every one of them along with their associated busses, memories, I/O, etc.
96 - 128
Texture Fill Rate (billion/sec)
This is the speed at an image can be rendered or "painted". This rate is specified in texels per second, the number of 3D pixels that can be painted per second. A texel is a pixel with depth (3D). The fill rate comes from the combined performance of the clock speed of the processor and the number of pixels it can process per clock cycle, and will tell you how quickly an image can be fully rendered on screen.
24 - 43.39 Billion/Sec
Vertices/second (Billion)
Graphics chips don't work on curves, rather they process flat surfaces. A curve is created by multiple flat planes arranged to look like a curve. 3D objects are created with multiple triangular surfaces, sometimes hundreds or even thousands, tessellated to represent the curves and angles of the real world. 3D artists are concerned with the number of polygons required to form a shape.
N/A
Pixels per clock (peak)
This impacts on the rendering capability of the GRU. The clock speed itself is not the critical factor. Rather it is the per-clock performance of the graphics processor, which is indicated by the number of pixels it can process per clock cycle.
48 - 64
Memory Interface Bus (bit)
The bit data rate between memory and the GPU.
256 - 320
Memory Type
VRAM was typically based on DDR technology. During and after that year, manufacturers moved towards the vastly superior DDR2, GDDR3 and GDDR4.
DDR3
Memory Size (MB)
the video card will have its own video memory which is called Video RAM or VRAM. The VRAM capacity of most modern video cards range from 128 MB to 2.0 GB.
512 - 640 MB
Memory Clock (MHz)
The memory clock rate in modern cards are generally between 400 MHz and 2.4 GHz.
1600 - 1944 MHz
Turbo Cache Technology
The revolutionary TurboCache technology utilizes the additional bandwidth of the PCI Express graphics bus to reach higher levels of graphics performance than traditional video memory solutions, delivering the performance and features you expect from NVIDIA graphics hardware. By allowing the graphics processing unit (GPU) to share the capacity and bandwidth of dedicated video memory and dynamically available system memory, TurboCache turbocharges performance and provides larger total graphics memory.

Output HDCP Capable
Designed to meet the output protection management (HDCP) and security specifications of the Blu-ray Disc and HD DVD formats, allowing the playback of encrypted movie content on PCs when connected to HDCP-compliant displays. Requires other HDCP-compatible components.

NVIDIA® CineFX® Engine
Delivers advanced visual effects at unimaginable speeds. Full support for the latest Microsoft® DirectX® Shader Model enables stunning and complex special effects. Next-generation shader architecture with new texture unit design streamlines texture processing for faster and smoother gameplay.
N/A
NVIDIA® Intellisample Technology
The industry's fastest antialiasing delivers ultra-realistic visuals, with no jagged edges, at lightning-fast speeds. Visual quality is taken to new heights through a new rotated grid sampling pattern, advanced 128 tap sample coverage, 16x anisotropic filtering, and support for transparent supersampling and multisampling.

NVIDIA® Digital Vibrance Control® Technology
Allows the user to adjust color controls digitally to compensate for the lighting conditions of their workspace, in order to achieve accurate, bright colors in all conditions.
N/A
Microsoft® DirectX® Support
The standard for today's PCs and next-generation consoles enables stunning and complex effects for cinematic realism. NVIDIA GPUs offer the most complete implementation of the Shader Model feature set-including vertex texture fetch (VTF)-to ensure top-notch compatibility and performance for all DirectX applications.

This is the minimum power supply wattage requirement for the graphics card to perform properly.

Cooling Heatsink
Generally referred to as a passive cooling device, it has no moving parts and, therefore, is soundless and very reliable; it absorbs and dissipates heat from the GPU using thermal contact (by either direct or radiant contact with a cooling medium such as air).
-
Cooling Fansink
Sometimes known as an active cooling device, a small electrical fan which drives air across a heat sink and as such will generate a small amount of noise. It is more effective than a heat sink alone at cooling.

XFX GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB Extreme Edition: A Smart Choice
OCC Gold
I am amazed at the performance that this Extreme Edition delivered. Especially since its so close to the standard 8800 GTS 640MB. That makes picking up this card a no brainer. I would recommend the XFX 8800 GTS to anyone one looking for a great DirectX 10 card that offers amazing DirectX 9 performance. Even if you haven't switched over to Vista yet, picking up this card would be a smart choice.

XFX 8800 GTS 512MB XXX Review
About.com
In the end the performance of the XFX 8800 GTS 512MB XXX was impressive. Certainly a lot more than the $250 range the 8800 GT 512MB goes for, but the XFX 8800 GTS 512MB XXX is so close to the much more expensive 8800 Ultra in performance that it renders the 8800 Ultra impotent in the marketplace.
