Elitegroup Computer Systems (ECS) and NVIDIA, the leading manufacturer of global desktop visual processing chip solutions, released the first 256bit performance level DX10 product ECS N8800GT-512MX graphics card. A derivative product of the industry praised GeForce 8800 GTX, ECS N8800GT-512MX graphics card evolves the manufacturing process to the industry leading 65nm level, and complies with the current requirements for mainstream players and high definition video lovers by perfectly reproducing the vivid visual effects of DX10 games. Operating with NVIDIA’s PureVideo HD high definition decoding technology, it provides a perfect, full HD play effect of 1080P, and ensures HD video lovers will enjoy the world of digital multimedia.

The release of ECS N8800GT-512MX graphics card fills the performance gaps between the 8600GTS graphics card and the high-end 8800 graphics card and introduces competitive 256bit products into the GeForce 8 series graphics cards. Supported by the advanced process of 65nm, the SP (stream processor) amount of the ECS N8800GT-512MX reaches an unprecedented 112 and ranks just below the top-grade 8800GTX. It surpasses the 320bit 8800GTS for comprehensive efficiency, and is the ideal choice for both the game players and the high-end lovers.

In multimedia, the ECS N8800GT-512MX introduces the revolutionary PureVideo HD technology into the GeForce 8800 series of products to make up the deficiencies in 8800GTX/GTS HDTV playback. With the ECS N8800GT-512MX platform, the hardware decoding of high definition video encoded with H.264 / VC-1 is without the CPU, thus perfectly implementing performance processing with video acceleration. This is a GeForce 8 series product with superior function and performance.

Adopting the new generation of PCI Express 2.0 interface, the ECS N8800GT-512MX graphics card is compatible with the PCI Express v1.x, the new standard doubles the data transmission rate of each serial line from 2.5Gbps to 5Gbps, greatly increasing the SLI and the external bandwidth necessary for the graphics cards under high loads. The new standard further increases the power supply capacity of PCI-E to 225w or higher, satisfying the power consumption demands of future high-end graphics cards. The newly applied “I/O Visualization” (IOV) technology enables multiple virtual host to share the PCI equipments such as NIC, thus letting the speed of each line reach 2.5Gbps.

With 112 SP units, the ECS 8800GT-512MX graphics card fully conforms to the DirectX 10.1 and Shader Moder 4.0 standards. Equipped with GDDR3 video memories with a bit width as 256Bit and a default core / video memory frequency as 600MHz / 1800MHz, it provides a video memory bandwidth of up to 57.6GB/S. Applying the centralized rendering structure of DX10, it supports the high precision 128Bit fully floating point level HDR+FSAA and up to 16X full screen anti-aliasing mode as well as the HDCP digital copyright protection protocol.
