SPARKLE Redefines Mainstream Market By Introducing GeForce 9600 GT 1GB/2GB DDR2 Graphics Card

(Auszug aus der Pressemitteilung)

Taipei, Taiwan – December 9, 2008 – SPARKLE Computer Co., Ltd., the professional VGA card manufacturer

and supplier, today announced the SPARKLE GeForce 9600 GT 1GB/2GB DDR2 Graphics Cards, which
redefine mainstream graphics card market with unbeatable 1GB or 2GB max capacity video memory. It can
bring amazing visual experience on the next-generation windows games.

• Advanced Rendering Architecture
  Based on NVIDIA’s next generation architecture, the SPARKLE GeForce 9600 GT 1GB/2GB DDR2
  Graphics Cards adopt innovative unified architecture, dynamically allocates processing power to
  geometry, vertex, physics, or pixel shading operations, delivering up to times the gaming
  performance of prior generation GPUs. Built upon technologies such as NVIDIA Lumenex Engine,
  providing support for DirectX 10 Shader Model 4.0, NVIDIA Quantum Effects technology for physics
  computation and GigaThread Technology for extreme processing efficiency in advanced, next
  generation shader programs.

• 1GB/2GB Extreme Fast Large-capacity DDR2 memory
  Today‘s game, such as GTA IV,Crysis, Alone in the Dark 5, Stalker: clear sky, they normally use a
  large number of bump texture, transparent texture to describe faces of characters and render
  realistic gaming scenes, so these games put higher demands on the capacities of video memory.
  The current situation demands at least 512 MB video memory to run these games. Compared with
  ordinary GeForce 9600 GT graphics cards on market, SPARKLE GeForce 9600 GT 1GB/2GB
  DDR2 Graphics Cards come with incredible large 1GB or 2GB DDR2 video memory, making them
  to be first batch of graphics cards in the world with up to 2GB video memory. SPARKLE GeForce
  9600 GT 1GB/2GB DDR2 Graphics Cards can let mainstream users to pass the 3DMark Vantage
  High Test which strictly demand at least 512MB video memory, providing much more detail
  information to mainstream users for better understanding its graphics capability.

• 2nd Generation PureVideo HD
  High-definition video decoder and post-processor delivers unprecedented picture clarity, smooth
  video and accurate color for movies and video.

• Cooling System
  Exquisitely made cooling fans, which have high performance thermal compound ensures optimal
  thermal dissipation even after years of use.

• Full Microsoft ® DirectX ® 10 support
  World’s first DirectX 10 GPU with full Shader Model 4.0 support delivers unparalleled levels of
  graphics realism and film-quality effects.

• NVIDIA™ PhysX
  GeForce GPU support for NVIDIA PhysX technology, enabling a totally new class of physical gaming interaction
  for a more dynamic and realistic experience with GeForce.
