8800 GS for DirectX 10 builds
The EVGA GeForce 8800 GS is a graphics card built around the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS GPU. It delivers 96 CUDA cores clocked at 550 MHz and 384 MB of GDDR3 memory on a 192-bit bus. The card targets systems that need DirectX 10 and OpenGL 2.0 support for older titles or legacy workloads.
PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot and dual DVI
Installation requires a PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot and draws power from the motherboard. Two DVI connectors drive digital displays up to 2560 x 1600, while an HDTV and S-Video output handle analogue screens. The single-slot design leaves adjacent expansion slots free for other add-in cards.
550 MHz core under sustained load
The 550 MHz core clock and 1600 MHz effective memory clock remain steady during extended sessions because the GPU’s modest throughput keeps thermal output low. A 400 MHz RAMDAC ensures stable analogue signalling. Performance scales linearly with shader-limited DirectX 10 applications rather than peaking in short bursts.

Questions about this item
Will the 384 MB GDDR3 frame buffer become the first bottleneck during extended gaming sessions?
The 384 MB 192-bit GDDR3 memory limits texture capacity, so sustained high-resolution loads will hit VRAM capacity before the 96 CUDA cores reach full utilisation.
How loud and hot does the card get when running all day at 550 MHz core clock?
The single-slot cooler exhausts heat through the rear bracket; expect audible fan noise and warm case temperatures under continuous 550 MHz operation.
Which power connectors must my PSU already provide for this PCI Express 2.0 x16 card?
The board draws auxiliary power through a single 6-pin PCIe connector; verify your power supply includes this lead before installation.
