SPARKLE Computer ha annunciato la realizzazione della scheda grafica di fascia alta siglata SPARKLE GeForce GTX 285 Plus. Si tratta di una soluzione "overclocked by factory" che, facendo uso di un sistema di raffreddamento a tre ventole basato sulla tecnologia Accelero Xtreme di Arctic Cooling, presenta - in configurazione di default - dei valori per le frequenze di clock della gpu, delle unità shader e della memoria G-DDR3 (1GB a 0.7ns) notevolmente più elevati di quelli previsti dal design reference, essendo pari infatti rispettivamente a 666MHz, 1512MHz e 2520MHz .
SPARKLE sottolinea l'idoneità della card alla esecuzione dei titoli DirectX complessi, come "Far Cry 2, Mirrors Edge e Call of Duty 5: World at War", e alla riproduzione dei filmati in Full HD.
Tra le tecnologie supportate NVIDIA 3D Stereo, SLI, 3-Way SLI, PureVideo HD II, PhysX e CUDA.

Taipei, Taiwan – May 26, 2009 - SPARKLE Computer Co., Ltd., the professional VGA card manufacturer and supplier, today introduced the SPARKLE GeForce GTX 285 Plus Graphics Card with unapproachable cooling solution, taking enthusiasts' DirectX 10 gaming experience beyond HD.
OC Features Brings Extreme DX10 HD Gaming Experience
Compared with ordinary GeForce GTX 285 graphics cards on market, the SPARKLE GeForce GTX 285 Plus Graphics Card is overclocked out of box. With 666MHz core speed, 2520MHz memory speed and 1512MHz shader clock, it take enthuists DirectX 10 gaming beyond HD. With the power of the overclocked GPUs, it places gamers in the center of the action and experience true DirectX 10 gaming cinema in extreme HD (2560x1600) resolutions—all enabled by the SPARKLE GeForce GTX 285 Plus Graphics Card, NVIDIA SLI technology, and incredible performance in the latest games including Far Cry 2, Mirrors Edge, and Call of Duty 5: World at War. With the powerful OC features, the SPARKLE GeForce GTX 285 Plus Graphics Card tears through complex DirectX 10 environments and cinematic effects at blazing frame rates in extreme HD resolutions.
1GB 0.7ns Extreme Large and Fast GDDR3 Memory
Today‘s game, such as GTA IV, Crysis, Alone in the Dark 5, Stalker: clear sky, they normally use a large number of bump texture, transparent texture to describe faces of characters and render realistic gaming scenes, so these games put higher demands on the capacity and speed of video memory. The current situation demands at least 512 MB video memory to run these games. Compared with ordinary GeForce GTX 285 graphics cards on market, the SPARKLE GeForce GTX 285 Plus Graphics Card comes with incredible large and fast 1GB 0.7ns GDDR3 video memory, making gamers to experience the hottest games at mind blowing frame rates.
Unapproachable Cooling Solution
The SPARKLE GeForce GTX 285 Plus Graphics Card is the world’s first graphics card to be equipped with the Accelero Xtreme cooling solution from Arctic Cooling, which delivers ultimate cooling weapon for hardcore gamers. The Accelero Xtreme features 5 heatpipes, 107 fins and 3 PWM fans. The radical optimized air flow design is targeting to cool effectively up to 240 Watt heat dissipation. The Accelero Xtreme can dramatically lower the temperature of the GPU at least 20ºC lower than the stock cooler. Together with the integrated memory and voltage regulator cooling, the Accelero Xtreme not only enhances the overclocking potential but also extends the card's service life. The three PWM fans from Accelero Xtreme bring maximum air flow but operate extremely silence, thanks to the low noise impellor design and the patented fan holder which eliminates the humming noise. The unnoticeable operation of Accelero Xtreme brings you the unparallel non-disturbed gaming experience ever before.
NVIDIA 3D Stereo Support
The SPARKLE GeForce GTX 285 Plus Graphics Card supports GeForce Stereoscopic 3D Technology from NVIDIA, which is market complete hardware and software kit for gamers built by NVIDIA for the 3D stereoscopic gaming market. It will immerse gamers in the world of 3D content like never before. Monsters, bullets, and landscapes jump out of gamers' flat monitors and into their imagination, making them part of the game. With NVIDIA GeForce Stereoscopic 3D driver technology, gaming will never be the same. Now with support for Microsoft Windows Vista and the SPARKLE GeForce GTX 285 Plus Graphics Card, gamers can play the hottest games and feel like they’re part of the action rather than watching it happen!
