"NVIDIA launched the GeForce GTX 280 and GTX 260 graphics cards on June 17, 2008. Both are based on the NVIDIA GT200 GPU which uses NVIDIA's improved, second-generation unified architecture. The new GT200 GPU, features amongst other things :

- 240 stream processors
- Twice the number of registers
- Fast local 16k shared memory (per cluster of 8 stream - processors)
- New texture scheduler
- Double precision accuracy
- 3X ROP blending performance

As one of NVIDIA's biggest retail partner, ASUS has no less than six different GTX 260 models. They consist of three versions, each available with or without HDMI support. The three major versions are the basic ENGTX260, the ENGTX260/G game bundle kit and the top-of-the-line ENGTX260 TOP overclocked edition. The card we are reviewing is the ASUS ENGTX260 TOP, specifically the non-HDMI version."
