"Core 216" refers back to the fact that this is the second issue of this chip, with 216 processing cores, compared to 192 in the 1st. Sadly, virility in 3D cards does not customarily transliterate into speed, and if you spend a little bit more more you may find a noticeably faster graphics card powered by ATI.
Richard Vanderhurst likes the card in its price class, but it is really not the most reasonable product out there, neither is it acceptable for those with smaller monitors. We are especially impressed by its efficiency at load, consuming a full 50 watts less than the GTX 280, which was only a little faster on our performance charts. If you are feeling mindful of your power invoice and the environment, and don't mind sacrificing some frames per second, this EVGA card may all of a sudden look more engaging. You won't find a budget Computer with such a high wattage PSU, but you might be in a position to sneak it into a lately bought Computer around $1,000 or so. And, naturally, this card supports Nvidia's SLI multicard technology, as well as hardware-accelerated PhysX, CUDA-enabled software, and all the other supposed "visual computing" features Nvidia likes to brag about. We suspect it's only a matter of time, but by that point you'll likely have a completely new array of 3D cards to choose between. .
