Info –Tek, the leading Taiwanese graphics card company has unveiled its GECUBE X1950XT OverDrive X series for the PCI-Express 16X Lane. This graphic card seems to be one of the best in the market at the moment in terms of cost versus performance for many good reasons.

The GECUBE X1950XT OverDrive X series uses the ATI Radeon R580+ chip which works well with 512MB of GDDR3 memory. This graphic card is also equipped with Info-Tek’s proprietary Turbo Extreme Silent Fan.

At the Application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) of the GECUBE X1950XT OverDrive X series of graphic cards is the ATI Radeon R580+ GPU, which happens to be the one of the top performance chips available in the market today. Its 48 pixel pipelines architecture offers the fastest image processing speed while the 512MB of GDDR3 high speed memory takes care of the exceptionally fast performance in 3DMark.

Secondly, since the GECUBE X1950XT OverDrive X series incorporates the GECUBE copper Turbo Extreme Silent Fan with reduced air resistance, improved heat dissipation and lower noise. Thus when running a 3D environment, the company’s proprietary fan design keeps the noise from the fan under 18db-.

The GECUBE X1950XT OverDrive X series of graphic cards also incorporates three heatp[ipes that work in tandem with the GECUBE copper Turbo Extreme Silent Fan, to ensure that overheating does not become a major problem.

GECUBE X1950XT OverDrive X series of graphic cards support Dual DVI (2 Dual Link) output interfaces that help to boost the maximum screen resolution supported. Besides, the built-in Overdrive Control Panel from ATI and temperature monitoring mode provides overclockers with a fast and cool experience.

The GECUBE X1950XT OverDrive X series supports the latest Shader Model 3.0 architecture, produces the highest frame rates available in the industry and also comes with 48 pixel pipelines. This combination helps to provide the fastest graphics processing capability.

What is more, the GECUBE X1950XT OverDrive X series supports High Definition Content Protection (HDCP), Blu-ray, HD DVD, 1080i and HDTV’s high definition video output. Besides, if you pair this graphic card with ATI’s exclusive AVIVO display technology, it is able to support the media format with the highest definition available in today’s times. And, that is not all. It can also display over a billion colors.

When the High Dynamic Range (HDR) and Anti-Aliasing (AA)(6X) features are both activated, you are guaranteed a crisp and smooth picture quality for the ultimate audio-visual experience. This product has been certified by Windows Vista Premium WHQL (Windows Hardware Quality Labs), so upgrade your system the easy way today to experience the 3D Aero interface first-hand!
