Today we have in our hands a card Radeon HD 2900XT made by ASUS, that by all means this cradle in the R600 nucleus that uses a process of 80nm. This version comes just by 512MB integrated from memory GDDR3 to 1656MHz using a bus of memory of 512-bit of wide. Combined with a nucleus of 757MHz, Radeon HD 2900XT can theoretically produce a bandwidth of 102.4GB/s, which is but of which offers the GeForce 8800 GTX.

In fact, in paper Radeon HD 2900XT sees but impressive that the GeForce 8800 GTX. Let us remember that the series GeForce 8 brought a change in the functionality and capacities of the GPU, moving away of shaders traditional of pixels and vertices that got to be very familiar for all, towards a collection of processors of floating points also calls Units of Processing Stream or SPU by its abbreviations in English.

The internal gears of the 8800 128 GTX include/understand SPUs of 1.35GHz. Later we have the Units of Textures (TAUs) that are 32 in the 8800 GTX, along with 24 Operating Units of Rasterizacion (ROPs). Radeon HD 2900XT, by its side, has amazing 320 SPUs with 32 16 single TAUs and ROPs.

Radeon HD 2900XT is seen so impressive in paper that we dare to say that Nvidia did not want that they catch it with the guard down nor to lose the momentum of his plates of the series GeForce 8 that have been sold enough or while have not had competition in the graphical card market of high performance. Thus Nvidia astutely prepared a new product design to do to him new the Radeon as opposed to. Well-known like Extreme GeForce 8800 `’, this GTX `overclockeada’ comes with a faster nucleus and frequencies from memory that marginally increase the performance. But good, if there are been following this competitive game of that it has to the fanatics of the performance in the pocket, you know that each improvement counts.

At the moment GeForce 8800 Extreme average costs ~$700, although Nvidia maintains that the price would have to diminish near the $600 after a period of relatively short time. Of all ways it is a great difference if we considered that the GeForce 8800 GTX average `single’ hill $550, and that the Extreme one is not nothing else that a overclockeada GTX. Nevertheless, Extreme GeForce 8800 of Nvidia is its product standard and must like mission defeat new Radeon HD 2900XT
