Introducing the XFX NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 295 and 285 Graphics Cards

Hong Kong January 8, 2009 - Gaming enthusiasts are serious about their equipment, and right now there's no more sobering piece of hardware on the market than the XFX NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 295 graphics card.

Leading the industry in performance, the XFX GeForce GTX 295 graphics card offers the memory volume and frequency of two GTX 260 cards and the raw shader processor horsepower of two GeForce GTX 280 cards. Officially, the XFX GeForce GTX 295 delivers 1792 MB of memory, a core frequency of 576 MHz and a heatsink that can dissipate 289 watts of power. In other words, it delivers amazing graphics without cooking your SLI-certified motherboard.

This dual-GPU-on-a-single-card set-up comes with all of the cutting-edge bells and whistles you would expect on a card of this caliber, including second generation NVIDIA® unified architecture, DirectX 10 support, PureVideo™ HD technology, PCI-Express 2.0, NVIDIA HybridPower™, Dual-link HDCP capability, and NVIDIA PhysX™ and NVIDIA CUDA™ technology.

And, for gamers in the market for a graphics card that outperforms the XFX NVIDIA® GeForce® 280, there's the brand-new XFX NVIDIA® GeForce® 285 graphics card. Delivering 10% greater performance than the XFX GeForce® 280 along with improved power consumption, the single GPU XFX GeForce® 285 clocks in with a 648 MHz core, 1476 MHz shaders and 2.48 GHz of memory.

Featuring Dual DVI, S-Video output, HDTV, 1 GB GDDR3 graphics memory, and 240 stream processors, and a similar 10.5-inch length to the GTX 280, you could think of the XFX GeForce® 285 as a seriously overclocked GeForce 280, with far less power consumption.

Armed with either the XFX GeForce® GTX 295 or the XFX GeForce® GTX 285 graphics cards and their own mad skills, gamers now have a significant edge over their opponents. Which we think makes anyone fair game.
