In the first part of photo-survey on models video card geForce 8500GT/8600GT/8600GTS we showed and briefly described about the products of the companies foxconn, Twintech, GIGABYTE, Chaintech, Leadtek and BFG.
Besides them, certainly, were announced the analogous (reference) solutions and other producers. However, and among them there are some models of card, which have distinctive special features, by which the producer is intended to draw buyer.
Here will examine some models of video adapters, whose was announcemed. Gainward announced several card series golden sample, among which we have BLISS8500GT PCX 256MB TV DVI. Frequencies are originally overstated, producer notes in his documents the value 600+ and 700+ MHz for processor and memory respectively
The amateurs of quiet work video card and computer as a whole will interest the version 8569-BLISS 8500GT PCX 256MB silentFX, which, as already, surely, it is clear from the name, is noiseless because of SilentFX passive cooling system.
BLISS 8500GT PCX 256MB silentFX is characterized by frequencies 600/of 600 MHz. Such frequency indices, are similar, they are caused by the installation of memory with the access time 1,4 ns, GDDR3 instead of reference DDR2.
A series geForce 8600 is represented by four models:
- BLISS 8600GT 256 SilentFX — 540/1400 MHz, 1,4- ns GDDR3
- BLISS 8600GT 256 Golden sample — 800+/1600+ MHz, 1,2- ns GDDR3
- BLISS 8600GTS 256 HDTV-DD — 675+/2000+ MHz, 1,0- ns GDDR3
- BLISS 8600GTS 256 Golden sample — 725+/2200+ MHz, 1,0- ns GDDR3
greatest interest, certainly, are the models golden sample, on which is installed 1,0- ns memory. However, version from SilentFX will also interest buyers.
Somewhat weaker than Gainward, judging by the characteristics, appears the proposal galaxy. Galaxy 8500 GT, represented below, has frequencies 500/800 MHz with established 2,5- ns memory.
The version galaxy on base of 8600GT is more rapid than reference models. Its frequencies are 600/1600 MHz (instead of 540/1400 MHz).
Most interesting appears the card galaxy of 8600GTS. For its cooling is used the cooler from zalman production . The operating frequencies of adapter are equal to, correspondingly, 700 and 2000 MHz, which almost corresponds to the proposal Of gainward. Moreover this accelerator has the controlled cooler and works with SmartPanel, by special ON for the tuning and the monitoring.
The company palit microsystems also represented several models video card on the new graphic processors NVIDIA. Its production series sonic with the increased operating frequencies and advanced cooling system, as it is noted in the press release of company, makes possible to reach approximately 10% superiority over the analogs competitors.
The card examined have differences from the standard clones, executed on the reference model. In them either are raised the frequencies or they are equipped with more powerful cooling system, or they possess both fact and, etc simultaneously, thanks to which and they will be of increased interest from the side of buyer, certainly for the reasonable price.
However, the production Of albatron, Biostar, Forsa, Inno 3d special gladdened in no way, judging by their characteristics. These companies thus far not of steel to release the factory overclocked versions adapters GeForce 8500GT/8600GT/8600GTS.
