The GeForce 8800 GTS 512 was a performance-segment graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on December 11th, 2007. Built on the 65 nm process, and based on the G92 graphics processor, in its G92-400-A2 variant, the card supports DirectX 11.1. Even though it supports DirectX 11, the feature level is only 10_0, which can be problematic with many DirectX 11 & DirectX 12 titles. The G92 graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 324 mm² and 754 million transistors. It features 128 shading units, 64 texture mapping units, and 16 ROPs. NVIDIA has paired 512 MB GDDR3 memory with the GeForce 8800 GTS 512, which are connected using a 256-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 650 MHz, memory is running at 820 MHz.
Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS 512 draws power from 1x 6-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 135 W maximum. Display outputs include: 2x DVI, 1x S-Video. GeForce 8800 GTS 512 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface. The card measures 254 mm in length, and features a dual-slot cooling solution. Its price at launch was 349 US Dollars.
