VIDEO: Taking apart the GeForce GTX 280
Nvidia’s new high-end graphics card, the GeForce GTX 280 has been a long time in the making. Although Nvidia has launched other high-end graphics cards since the 8800 GTX first set out to wow us in 2006, these have either been dual GPU offerings such as the 9800 GX2, or underwhelming efforts like the GeForce 9800 GTX.
The GTX 280 is a true high-end graphics card in the traditional mould - one, massive, expensive, hot running GPU. It features a massive bank of 240 stream processors, a 512-bit memory interface and packs 1GB of GDDR3 memory. If you want the full skinny on the card, as well as its performance in games, then make sure you check out Custom PC’s full review of the GeForce GTX 280, but if you just want to take a closer look at this supercar of the PC world, you’ve come to the right place.
