Slightly on the bulkier side compared to the XFX 8800GT Alpha Dog Edition
(reviewed Jan '08), the 8800GT comes with 512 MB DDR3 RAM. This is based on
NVIDIA's latest 8800GT chipset and comes with 600 MHz core clock speed and 900
MHz memory clock speed. One welcome change in this card is the support for HDMI.
It came with a DVI to HDMI converter, which can be connected to any of the dual
DVI output ports on the card to get HDMI connectivity for your LCD monitor.
Other than HDMI support, rest all are common features: HDCP support, SLI, HDCP,
HDTV, etc.
Coming to performance, it did better than XFX 8800GT Alpha Dog Edition
(review in this issue). In 3D Mark06 it scored 10839, clearly outscoring XFX
8800GT which managed to score 10736. One reason for its better performance is
higher RAM (512 MB vs 256 MB). It performed better in gaming as well. In Company
of Heroes at maximum setting it scored around 133 fps (1280x1024) which is very
high and much ahead of that achieved by XFX 8800GT. Even in Crysis it managed a
good score of 32.1 fps with 2x anti-aliasing (1280x1024). It's enthralling to
see such high scores being achieved though price is on the higher side.
