WidowPC Gaming Computers - Nvidia 8800GTX now available on WidowPC Gaming Computers
The new Nvida 8800GTX is available on all WidowPC gaming computers.
The new NVidia 8800 series cards are DirectX 10 compatable and take advantage of
all the new features of DX10 has to offer.
With the launch of the 8800 GTX NVIDIA ushers in the next era in
computer gaming graphics with the first fully compliant DirectX 10 card on the market.
The new NVIDIA 8800 GTX is a complete departure from the previous
generation of NVIDIA 7000 series GPUs. The 8800 GTX utilizes a wealth of
features not previously available to graphics cards.
Dynamic Operations
NVIDIA is calling the 8800 GTX and GTS unified, massively parallel shader
designs. The 8800 GTX has 128 individual stream processors
that can perform four types of operations dynamically. It can act
as a vertex and pixel shader, or perform geometry or physics operations for
the utmost efficiency.
Powered by DirectX 10
Both the 8800 GTX and the 8800 GTS are fully DirectX 10 compliant. DirectX
10 has some fantastic new features that will take PC gaming to the next level.
The most exciting new feature for DirectX 10 is the ability to perform physic
calculations on the GPU.
DirectX 10 also features new Shader Model 4 geometry shaders that NVIDIA
claims will unlock a completely new world of graphical effects. We will have
to take NVIDIA’s word on that until next year when the DirectX 10 games hit
market. Do not let all this talk of DirectX 10 fool you, the 8800 GTX is the
top performer for DirectX 9 current game titles.
Image Quality
When NVIDIA says that the image quality of the 8800 GTX is industry
leading, they mean it. NVIDIA uses a new engine they call the Lumenex Engine
in the 8800 GTX. At the center of this new engine is an advanced new
antialiasing technology that allows up to 16x full-screen multisampled
antialiasing quality and only costs you the performance loss you would see
with 4x multisampled antialiasing. That means much better graphics, with much
better performance.
