Inno3D Geforce GTX 280 GeForce GTX 280 1GB GDDR3

Geforce GTX 280 - 2200MHz, 1GB, 512 bit, PCI-Express, OpenGL® 2.0 Boundless Discovery with Inno3D® GeForce GTX280 & GTX260
Inno3D® are excited to announce the 2nd Generation GPU technology, the Inno3D® GeForce® GTX 280 & 260. Place yourself in the center of the action and experience true DirectX 10 gaming cinema in extreme HD (2560x1600) resolutions – all enabled by Inno3D® GeForce® GTX 200 GPUs’ second generation unified architecture, NVIDIA SLI® Technology, and top notch DirectX 10 support. With 50% more performance than prior generation GPUs, GeForce GTX 200 GPUs tear through complex DirectX 10 environments and cinematic effects at blazing frame rates in beyond HD resolutions. Inno3D® bundles double the action with 2 amazing games: Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter2 & Company of Heros Opposing Force.

The Inno3D® GeForce® 9800GX2 powerhouse was once the heavyweight of the enthusiast sector. However, the Inno3D® GeForce® GTX280 has come along and taken the limelight with performance results sure to impress. An astonishing 38.7% power difference was recorded with the latest 3DM Vantage benchmarks, both GTX280 & GTX260 were benched under extreme resolution.
