As you should know by now Sparkle has a somewhat "luxurious" version of the some of their graphics cards. They call it the Calibre line of products, we are testing such a card flavorored in the model GeForce 8800 GTS 320MB. The Calibre series is slightly more expensive yet you'll receive some pretty nifty extra candy. In the case of the GeForce 8800 GTS 320 MB they are offering your an overclocked model armed with nothing less than a peltier/TEC cooler.
Yes correct, using peltier cooling is somewhat controversial; but like many manufacturers out there .. everybody is seeking some different, something fresh something new. What do you need to know other then the peltier cooler ? Well, the Calibre series is slightly more expensive yet you'll receive some pretty nifty extra candy.
The reference model GeForce 8800 GT runs at 500 MHz and it's memory at 1600 MHz. This model is clocked at 575 MHZ and it's memory at 1780 MHz. So it has a pre-clock as well. Still with me ? No ? Well just read the review ;)
