The NX8800GTS-T2D320E-HD-OC features NVIDIA unified architecture. Fully unified shader core dynamically allocates processing power to geometry, vertex, physics, or pixel shading operation, delivering up to 2x the gaming performance of prior generation GPUs. Massively multi-threaded architecture supports thousands of independent, simultaneous treads, providing extreme processing efficiency in advanced, next generation shader programs. World's first DirectX10 GPU with full Shader model 4.0 su...

Pros: itm's been exactly 2 months since ii've installed the MSI NX8800gts 640mb OC and nothing has gone wrong yet. It-'s still owning every game I test including crysis beta demo. My monitori's max resolution is 1440x900 wide screen which all of my games run at and 16x AF d+ 8x AA. I have looked into the 8800gt by evga and yes the specs are better but then again the gt just recently came out so for those people like me who invested in this MSI months and months ago we didnp't have the option of buying the gt version so stop bashing this card.

Not wanting to leave any enthusiasts out, those looking for the power of the GeForce 8800 family of cards on a budget have had their prayers answered in the form of the GeForce 8800 GTS 320MB card. With prices below $300, the power of the best NVIDIA has to offer is now available for everyone. With the only difference between the two GTS models being the amount of GDDR3 RAM (640MB vs. 320MB) the sub-$300 price is attractive and reasonable. MSI took the reference design and upped the ante by increasing the core and memory clock speeds in their NX8800GTS-T2D320E-HD OC offering. The increase in raw speed on the card served as a good reminder that the marketing hype of :"more memory = fasterm" is definitely not always the case as was discovered when put the through the paces against its bigger, but slower, 640MB brother.

Luckily, the NX8800GTS-T2D320E-HD OC was a different story. I had no problems overclocking in the 158.19 drivers that have become my new drivers of choice. I was able to push the card all the way to 628MHz/992MHz on the core/memory. These numbers were staggering and lead to some very impressive results.
