Page 1 of 2 (Column) - The disappointment of NVIDIA not using the ‘Ultra’ suffix in its new graphics card is over with NVIDIA spoiling everyone’s party of ‘We told you so’ by keeping a low profile on the GTX 512MB instead of calling it the ‘Ultra’ version that many anticipated. While the 512MB tag is just enough to differentiate between NVIDIA’s top two products, it would’ve been a lot more impressive if we could flaunt the lack of value in our purchase with a 7800 Ultra, but unfortunately NVIDIA took that opportunity away from us. Oh well… Our preference for the name aside, the 7800 GTX 512MB is a high performing card that does well in terms of performance, unless you are running two 7800 GTX cards in SLI already. Of course, a lot of applications will scale with the higher clock speeds but you really wouldn’t notice the difference.

To give you the ‘fastest graphics card in the world’, NVIDIA has made some changes to its fabrication process as well as the heatsink. These changes together have ensured that the 512MB GTX is clocked higher than the original 7800 GTX.
