Quote from the review: "NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 200 series of graphics cards have undergone a significant price reduction since they first debuted. At the time, NVIDIA flexed its GPU muscle with a high-end, single GPU graphics design that their primary competition (AMD) could only compete with by throwing two GPUs at the problem.

Leadtek WinFast GeForce PX9500 GT Review
Tweaktown published a review of the new Leadtek WinFast GeForce PX9500 GT video card.
Quote from the review: "If you find yourself getting sick to the stomach when you see how much cards like the GTX 280 and GTX 260 are and just can’t understand why people would spend so much money on a graphics card, the 9500 GT could be in your league. The 9500 GT, as you might have guessed comes in below the 9600 series and well below the 9800s. It’s designed for people who are looking at getting away from onboard graphics but don’t want to blow too much money.

Palit GeForce GTX 280 Review
Motherboards published a review of the Palit GeForce GTX 280 video card.
Quote from the review: "Underneath almost every GTX 280 cards sticker is the same card in the GTX280 family of cards, with differences being cosmetic in nature in almost every case. There are a few bold partners who make spec changes and such, but that is a limited number of cards being brought to market at best. My point is this; almost every GTX280 you see on the shelf was made with the same spec and same manufacturing procedures so who you buy from becomes a very valid concern in a sea of manufactures. Palit is the biggest NVIDIA and ATI partner with the positions and distribution levels to bring solid business to the game.

EVGA GeForce GTX 280 1GB FTW Edition Review
Motherboards published a EVGA GeForce GTX 280 1GB FTW Edition review.
Quote from the review: "Wow, there is fast and then there is faster and then there's the fastest. The new EVGA GTX208 FTW Edition VGA card is the fastest single card solution we have ever had to grace our labs period; it's as fast as an entry level 9800GX2 and faster than dual 9800GTX's running in an SLI configuration. Usually with a release that comes so soon after a previous release you see just slight improvements in performance over its predecessor, but the GTX280 release brings over double the power of the 9800GTX.

Nvidia's GeForce GTX 280 Graphics Processor
The TechReport takes a close look at the NVIDIA GTX 280 and 260.
Quote: "If the GPU world were a wildlife special on the National Geographic channel, the G80 processor that powers GeForce 8800 GTX graphics cards would be a stunningly successful apex predator. In the nearly two years that have passed since its introduction, no other single-chip graphics solution has surpassed it. Newer GPUs have come close, shrinking similar capabilities into smaller, cooler chips, but that's about it. The G80 is still the biggest, baddest beast of its kind—a chip, as we said at the time, with "the approximate surface area of Rosie O'Donnell." After it dispatched its would-be rival, the Radeon HD 2900 XT, in an epic mismatch, AMD gave up on building high-end GPUs altogether, preferring instead to go the multi-GPU route. Meanwhile, the G80 has sired a whole range of successful offspring, from teeny little mobile chips to dual-chip monstrosities like the GeForce 9800 GX2.

Using the fastest and most-powerful graphics processor NVIDIA has ever developed, both new GeForce products are constructed from a freshly-minted GT200 graphics processor.

GeForce GTX 280 tested with overclocked QX9650
NVIDIA announced today the new GTX 200 GPUs 280 and 260. Tweaktown gave the GTX 280 an environment to really show off what it can do.
Quote from the report: "Feeling a little underwhelmed with the initial GTX 280 results, I took the time to make my way over to the IBuyPower Australia bunker to let the card have a bit more breathing room. While our 3GHz test bed is quite modest and a good indication of performance for the everyman or woman, there is of course people out there who are a bit more hardcore and do have a few more dollars to splash about.
