Upgrading your PC on an AGP M/B to the latest GF 6800 board now is
possible with XFX.
Within a timeframe of about two weeks, the native AGP variant of the XFX
GeForce 6800 GS with 256MB DDR3 will be landing on the shores of Europe.
Because the development is still in process, not all details are known
yet. The graphics card will be based on all the GF6 features [HDR, SM3,
etc] and the actual hardware will utilize:
- NV40 chipset [clock higher as default; soon to be
released]
- 256MB DDR memory [clock higher as default; soon to be released]
- DVI OUT
- TV OUT
As you can expect from XFX, the bundled software includes the AI driver
system, Coolbits overclocking tool and the highly recommended video
editing software, 3D Edit. The software utilizes the full potential of
NVIDIAs GPU and releaves the CPU from the rendering load, making it
possible to do this real-time.
The hardware bundle includes the S-video cable, DVI connector, manual
and the 15-language quick installation guide.
The expected e-tail price will be 249 euros [incl VAT] but might vary a
little locally due to influences like VAT.
When the picture and full product sheet are available, we will provide
it to you as usual.
