UltraShadow II Technology
Enhances the performance of bleeding-edge games, like id Software's Doom III, that feature complex scenes with multiple light sources and objects. Second-generation technology delivers more than 4× the shadow processing power over the previous generation.

64-Bit Texture Filtering and Blending
Based on the OpenEXR technology from Industrial Light & Magic, NVIDIA’s 64-bit texture implementation sets new standards for image clarity and quality through floating point capabilities in shading, filtering, texturing, and blending.

Digital Vibrance Control (DVC) 3.0
Allows the user to adjust color controls digitally to compensate for the lighting conditions of their workspace, in order to achieve accurate, bright colors in all conditions.

AGP 8X
Provides double the bandwidth of AGP 4X—2.1GB/sec. vs. 1.1GB/sec. AGP 8X enables more complex models and detailed textures, creating richer and more lifelike environments. Uninterrupted data flow allows for smoother video streaming and faster, more seamless gameplay.

great card, great price. Some of the semi-older games like Far Cry display strange; the dark objects are bright (like interior of the air craft carrier) while bright things are dark (like dude's face). That's nothing to do with the card; it's the game conflicting with the drivers or something. The card is very stable, i left it on for three days with a 300 watt power supply. Save yourself some cash and get this beast!

I bought the card to play Battlefield 2. I have the settings on low and keep a screen resolution of 1024 x 768. Using Fraps I average 65 frames per second. To achieve those scores I had to turn off/disable my second monitor. For a frame of reference, my friend has a PCI Express vid card and he's averaging 95 frames per second. The other issue to consider is that the card is listed as a GS and I think is marketed by DiabloTek as a GS however on bootup is writes GTS to the screen.
