Brea, California and Munich, Germany - January 2, 2007 - EVGA Announces new faster e-GeForce 8800's with ACS³ Cooling

EVGA, a leading provider of performance computing hardware, today announced the release of their e-GeForce 8800 GTX KO w/ ACS³ (P/N: 768-P2-N837-AR) and 8800 GTS KO w/ ACS³ (P/N: 640-P2-N827-AR) NVIDIA technology-based graphics card. The new 8800GTX KO ACS3, in addition to EVGA's patented ACS3 cooling, is spec'd at an amazing 626MHz core clock with 2.0GHz memory. The 8800GTS is spec'd at a groundbreaking 580MHz core, 1.7GHz memory. These new graphics cards will be available at online retailers at an MSRP of $649.99 for the 8800GTX KO ACS3, and $479.99 for the 8800GTS KO ACS3.
