The ZOTAC GeForce GTS 450 ZONE Edition…

NVIDIA is reportedly working on a new mainstream GPU for a mid-March launch. The graphics giant is planning to name it GeForce GTX 550 Ti, that’s right, “GTX” prefix and “Ti” suffix monikers being extended to the core mainstream, in place of the typical “GTS”. The new GPU will be based on the 40 nanometer GF116 silicon. Its exact specifications are not known, except that the GPU will use a 128-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface, and will be pin-compatible with GF106, on which is based the GeForce GTS 450. Its performance is estimated to be up to 35% higher than ATI Radeon HD 5770. Due to an electrical redesign over GF106, the GTX 550 Ti is expected to have a TDP of just 110W, nearly the same as that of the GTS 450, except having higher performance. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti is slated for release on 15 March, 2011.

ASUS is designing a new GeForce GTS 450 graphics card that is factory overclocked, and makes use of some innovative new features. To begin with, the card is clocked at 810 MHz for the core, 1620 MHz CUDA cores, and 902 MHz (3608 GDDR5 effective) for memory. It makes use of a 4-phase VRM with POSCAP capacitors, an EMI shield, and GPU Guard technology that increases durability. On the other side of the coin ofcourse, there’s the VoltageTweak feature that lets you adjust voltages to optimize an overclocked speed profile. Display outputs include one each of DVI, D-Sub, and full-sized HDMI, The GTS 450 is based on the GF106 GPU, it features 192 CUDA cores and connects to 1 GB of memory over a 128-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface.

Point of View the leading European manufacturer of an exclusive range NVIDIA based 3D processor boards, advanced netbooks as well as fancy touchpad computers and additional enthusiast PC products, announces an addition to a complete product range of advanced 3D processor graphics cards based on NVIDIA’s latest GeForce GTS 450 GPU the POV/TGT GeForce GTS 450 “BEAST”.

The POV/TGT GeForce GTS 450 “BEAST” is of highest quality and feature rock solid stability even beyond the documented clock settings of 920 MHz core clock, 1840 MHz shader clock and 4008 MHz memory clock (1002 MHz times 4 due to GDDR5). Considering the 783 MHz NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 reference design, the 920 MHz POV/TGT GeForce GTS 450 “BEAST” offers a significant performance increase of over 135 MHz.

Point of View – leading European manufacturer of NVIDIA based 3D graphics cards and desktop-, mobile- and touch screen computer systems – announces the newest GeForce 400 graphics card; the POV GeForce GTS 450. The everlasting battle between price and performance has been settled with a perfectly balanced graphics card. A combination of raw processing power, ground breaking technologies and a very, very interesting pricetag may very well nominate the GeForce GTS 450 graphics card for the ‘most bang for the buck’ award.

The GeForce ‘FERMI’ 400 series continues with this mainstream performance card. With the NVIDIA technologies PhysX, SLI and 3dVision you will play every game ‘The Way It’s Meant To Be Played’. Experience the ultimate DirectX 11 gaming immersion with higher frame rates, better lighting effects and more detail in both game environments as well as character models.

Next-generation gaming has arrived. A GPU with performance at twice the speed for your online games is available right now. Leadtek Research Inc., known globally for its extreme visual graphics technology development, today announced the arrival of the overclocking version of WinFast GTS 450 Extreme GDDR5 1GB graphics card. Much like a race car in appearance, it delivers the best and coolest performance in comparison to others. The new product can lower GPU temperature by 10%-15% and be overclocked to up to 850 MHz.

Compared to the same level of product in the previous generation, WinFast GTS 450 Extreme dominates the competition with more than 2x the DirectX 11 geometry processing power for unparalleled game realism. Built on next-generation GeForce Fermi architecture, it is equipped with NVIDIA GeForce 106 GPU and 192 cores. The new release is specially designed to effectively dissipate heat away from the graphics card. The WinFast GTS 450 Extreme can quickly transfer heat away from the GPU and lower the temperature by a whopping 12ºC in comparison to reference designs.

ZOTAC International, a leading innovator and the world’s largest channel manufacturer of graphics cards, motherboards and mini-PCs, today takes NVIDIA Fermi architecture mainstream with the new GeForce GTS 450 series. The new ZOTAC GeForce GTS 450 series is the perfect companion for gamers looking to upgrade to Microsoft DirectX 11-class graphics while gaining performance in existing DirectX 10 titles.

The new ZOTAC GeForce GTS 450 series takes 192 unified shaders and pairs it with 1GB of high-speed GDDR5 memory for lightning-fast performance in the latest game titles. A 128-bit wide memory interface connects the memory to the graphics processor for high-quality textures and details in the latest games and applications.

Galaxy introduced its first own-design GeForce GTS 450 graphics cards, the Galaxy GTS 450 GC and Galaxy GTS 450 Super OC. Both models feature out of the box factory overclock settings. The cards feature a blue non-reference PCB, and a cooling solution that has a detachable fan that helps with cleaning the fins underneath to maintain optimal cooling performance. While the GC variant features clock speeds of 825/1650/924(3696) MHz core/shader/memory(effective memory) against reference speeds of 783/1566/900(3600) MHz, the Super OC variant features higher-quality 0.4 ns memory chips, and offers clock speeds of 888/1776/1000(4000) MHz. Both cards should be available anytime now, US prices are not known as yet.

SPARKLE Computer Co., Ltd., the professional VGA card manufacturer and supplier, today unveils two SPARKLE GeForce GTS 450 Graphics Cards, offering a variety of cooling solutions and bringing premium gaming performance and the fun of use to mainstream gamers.
