New ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260 delivers 2nd Generation NVIDIA Unified Architecture and absolute gaming immersion
HONG KONG – Jun. 16, 2008 – ZOTAC International, a leading NVIDIA AIC partner, today announced a new generation of high-end graphics performance with the new ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260 graphics card. The new ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260 introduces the power of 2nd Generation NVIDIA Unified Architecture and NVIDIA PhysX technology for a power-packed immersive gaming experience in the latest DirectX 10 and OpenGL 2.1 3D games and applications.
Powering the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260 is 192 blazing-fast processor cores for extremely high performance in the latest 3D games and applications. 2nd Generation NVIDIA Unified Architecture empowers the 192 processor cores with a 50-percent increase from the first generation architecture.
“Our new ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260 graphics card shatters all previous performance expectations with its new 2nd Generation NVIDIA Unified Architecture,” said Carsten Berger, marketing director, ZOTAC International. “The ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260 delivers what gamers and enthusiasts have come to expect from the ZOTAC brand, a high-performance gaming experience with brilliant visuals.”
Feeding the 192 processor cores is 896MB of ultra-fast GDDR3 graphics memory. The graphics memory connects to the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 graphics processor via a 448-bit wide memory bus for speedy communications between GPU and the video memory for ultra high resolution textures.
New NVIDIA PhysX technology delivers powerful physics processing capabilities to the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260 for a gaming experience that is not only visually brilliant, but absolutely immersive as well. NVIDIA PhysX technology uses the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 graphics processor to render realistic physics effects in virtual environments for life-like interactivity with objects, blurring the line between reality and virtual reality.
“NVIDIA PhysX technology is a major milestone for PC gaming. Before NVIDIA PhysX technology was available, virtual environments were mostly static with all objects reacting the same way to gun shots, explosions and user interaction.” Mr. Berger said. “NVIDIA PhysX technology allows the player to interact with environmental objects and have different results each time, depending on how they approach objects. Weather effects are also more realistic, with PhysX technology computing how leaves move against the wind, rain and other weather effects.”
To take advantage of the raw power of the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260, Codemaster’s latest racing game, GRID, is bundled with the graphics card. GRID immerses gamers into a virtual world of intense racing with insane crashes and brilliant visuals.
Additionally, the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260 supports NVIDIA SLI technology for increased graphics power with the addition of a second ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260 graphics card. NVIDIA PureVideo HD technology is also onboard the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260 for a visually stunning high-definition and standard-definition video playback, with hardware-based video decoding.
