The Photos
On the next few pages we'll show you some photos. The images were taken at 2560x1920 pixels and then scaled down. The camera used was a Sony DCS-F707 5.1 MegaPixel.
The BFG GeForce 8800 GTX 768 MB.
There she is, the BFG GeForce 8800 GTX - equipped with 768MB GDDR3 memory and a length of 10.5 inches long.
Okay, okay, so on its back it's like a turtle that can't get back on its feet eh? There's a reason I'm showing you this though as when you focus a little onto the middle you'll notice the memory locations. Count with me, what did you get? Exactly 12 spots means 12 memory chips x (16M) 32 bits = 384-bit. This is how NVIDIA accumulates it to a 384-bit product.
To the "upper" middle you'll notice there are two SLI connectors on the GeForce 8800 GTX. The second SLI connector on the GeForce 8800 GTX is hardware support for "impending future enhancements" in SLI software functionality. Don't you love diplomacy. So that's either Physics as add-on or two-way SLI. With the current drivers, only one SLI connector is actually used. You can plug the SLI connector into either the right or left set of SLI connector.
DVI connectors, dual-link DVI of course. With the 7-pin HDTV-out mini-din, a user can plug an S-video cable directly into the connector, or use a dongle for YPrPb (component) or composite outputs. The prior 9-pin HDTV-out mini-din connector required a dongle to use S-video, YPrPb and composite outputs.
The cooler despite it's huge size does have a somewhat surreptitious design huh? Granted I like it. Next to that, it's quite silent and does not make a lot of noise at all.
