N260GTX Lightning, launching
at CeBIT
The guys over at Matbe have received information from MSI
about a new Geforce GTX 260 they are developing. The new GTX 260 flavor will feature double the amount of GDDR3 memory
chips found in current models.
The card, dubbed MSI N260GTX Lightning, will pack 1792MB
of memory, as the GTX 295 does, and will be manufactured on a red PCB with
dual-slot cooling, dual fans, and five heatpipes. The card also features an 8 +
2 phase power design, including capacitors that support temperatures up to 125C
with an advertised lifetime of 5000 hours.
Clock frequencies are unknown at press time, but users will be
able to quickly and easily modify them with the included MSI N260GTX Lightning
AirForce Panel.
Moreover, this card is launching next week at CeBIT, where
we can expect to receive further information about the product.
