INNO3D GEFORCE 9800 GTX+ REVIEW

"Inno3d GeForce 9800 GTX+ review compared to the Gainward Radeon HD 4850. The Inno3d GeForce 9800 GTX+ has 16% higher clock speed and 10% higher memory speed than the Gainward Radeon HD 4850. The Gainward Radeon HD 4850 however has over six times the pixel shading advantage with 800 Pixel Shaders compared to the Inno3d GeForce 9800 GTX+."

NVIDIA® PHYSX™ IS THE NEXT BIG THING IN GAMING!

"Delivering physics in games is no easy task. It's an extremely compute-intensive environment based on a unique set of physics algorithms that require tremendous amounts of simultaneous mathematical and logical calculations. This is where NVIDIA® PhysX™ Technology and GeForce® processors come in. NVIDIA PhysX is a powerful physics engine which enables real-time physics in leading edge PC and console games. PhysX software is widely adopted by over 150 games, is used by more than 10,000 registered users and is supported on Sony Playstation 3, Microsoft Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii and PC. In addition, PhysX is designed specifically for hardware acceleration by powerful processors with hundreds of cores. Combined with the tremendous parallel processing capability of the GPU, PhysX will provide an exponential increase in physics processing power and will take gaming to a new level."

NVIDIA® CUDA™ TECHNOLOGY

"NVIDIA CUDA™ Technology is the world’s only C language environment that provides access of processing power of next-generation NVIDIA GPUs. It enables developers to utilize NVIDIA GPUs to solve the most complex computation-intensive challenges such as oil and gas exploration, financial risk management, product design, medial imaging, and scientific research."
