The world’s fastest DirectX 11 video card has finally arrived and it's called the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 580. While it might sound like a new Pontiac super-car to most of you, it actually happens to be a gaming video card. ZOTAC announced that the new card, powered by NVidia’s Fermi architecture, is available and bundled with the Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, among all its glorious hardware goodness.
Carsten Berger, marketing director, ZOTAC International commented in the press release about the new card, saying…
“The ZOTAC GeForce GTX 580 graphics card is the ultimate solution for gamers that crave the absolute best graphics experience. For the first time ever, we’re able to push the performance envelope, lower power consumption for best-in-class energy-efficiency and quieter acoustics all at the same time with the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 580 graphics card,”
Okay, so get this: the GeForce GTX 580 has a whooping 4k MHz memory clock and 1.5k GGDR5 dedicated memory blasting through its high-tech veins. Is that not crazy or what? Funking crazy.
Anyway, the ZOTAC GTX 580 is active 3D ready with stereoscopic Nvidia Vision 3D Surround support and SLI. This card is like all the sleek sexiness of a Lamborghini with the pure benchmark-breaking powerhouse capabilities of a 1977 Dodge Challenger. Probably getting you gaming geeks all hot and bothered just thinking about the GTX 580…yep, you know it is.
