Key Features

• Microsoft DirectX 9.0 Shader Model 3.0 support
  Ensures top-notch compatibility and performance for all DirectX 9 applications, including Shader Model 3.0 titles.
  

• On-chip video processor
  Delivers unmatched video performance, features, and quality.
  

• AGP 8X
  Provides double the bandwidth of AGP 4X-2.1GB/sec. vs. 1.1GB/sec. AGP 8X enables more complex models and detailed textures, creating richer and more lifelike environments. Uninterrupted data flow allows for smoother video streaming and faster, more seamless gameplay.
  
  
• High-speed GDDR3 memory interface
  Support for high-speed GDDR3 memory delivers fluid frame rates for even the most advanced games and applications. (GeForce 6600 GT only)
  

• 64-bit floating point texture filtering and blending
  Based on the OpenEXR technology from Industrial Light & Magic (http://www.openexr.com/), NVIDIA's 64-bit texture implementation sets new standards for image clarity and quality through floating point capabilities in filtering, texturing, and high dynamic-range (HDR) lighting.
  
  
• Revolutionary superscalar architecture
  Delivers up to 8x the shading power of previous generation products for screaming gaming performance.
  

• NVIDIA CineFX 3.0 engine
  Powers the next generation of cinematic realism. Full support for Microsoft DirectX 9.0 Shader Model 3.0 enables stunning and complex special effects. Next-generation shader architecture delivers faster and smoother gameplay.
  

• NVIDIA UltraShadow II technology
  Enhances the performance of bleeding-edge games, like id Software's Doom III, that feature complex scenes with multiple light sources and objects. Second-generation technology delivers more than 4x the shadow processing power over the previous generation.
  

• Full-speed 32-bit color precision
  Delivers increased image quality with no performance compromise.
  

• NVIDIA Intellisample 3.0 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.
  

• High-definition MPEG-2 and WMV hardware acceleration
  Smoothly playback all MPEG-2 and WMV video with minimal CPU usage so the PC is free to do other work. (Feature requires supported video software.)
  

• Advanced motion adaptive de-interlacing
  Smoothly playback all MPEG-2 and WMV video with minimal CPU usage so the PC is free to do other work. (Feature requires supported video software.)
  

• Video scaling and filtering
  High-quality scaling and filtering technology improves video playback quality at any window size, including full-screen HDTV resolutions.
  

• Integrated HDTV encoder
  Provides world-class HDTV-out functionality up to and including 1920x1080i resolutions.
  

• NVIDIA ForceWare Unified Driver Architecture (UDA)
  Delivers rock-solid forward and backward compatibility with software drivers. Simplifies upgrading to a new NVIDIA product or driver because all NVIDIA products work with the same driver software. Includes full support for PCI Express and AGP.
  
  
• NVIDIA nView multi-display technology
  Advanced technology provides the ultimate in viewing flexibility and control for multiple monitors.
  

• NVIDIA Digital Vibrance Control 3.0 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.
  

• OpenGL 1.5 optimizations and support
  Ensures top-notch compatibility and performance for all OpenGL applications.
  

• Dual 400MHz RAMDACs
  Blazing fast RAMDACs support dual QXGA displays with ultra-high, ergonomic refresh rates up to and including 2048x1536@85Hz.
  
  
• Dual single-link DVI support
  Able to drive the industry's largest and highest resolution flat-panel displays up to and including 1900x1200.
