Unprecedented 1GB Onboard Memory for Ultimate Graphics
Memory size is vital when it comes to graphical performance, as even a powerful GPU can suffer from bottlenecks due to slow and insufficient video memory. With more memory installed on a graphics card, more data can be stored–providing faster graphical performance. Most current and upcoming games require increasingly high video memory requirements, and the ASUS EAH4670/DI/1G and EN9400GT/HTP/1G, each equipped with an enormous 1GB worth of built-in memory, will deliver greatly enhanced visual performances, and allow users to fully enjoy games or movies without lag or stuttering–even at very high resolutions and maximum quality settings.
21% Performance Boosts for Exceptional Graphics
The ASUS EN9400GT D3/HTP/512M comes equipped with cutting-edge 1ns memory modules–delivering memory clock performance boosts from 800MHz(DDR2) up to an incredible 1.8GHz(DDR3). Such unprecedented performance boosts help raise the EN9400GT´s 3DMark06 score from 3227 to 3890–an astonishing 21% faster in comparison to generic graphics cards*. Users will be able to achieve extraordinary performance levels–only with the ASUS EN9400GT D3/HTP/512M.
Up to 15ºC Cooler with Specially Designed Fansink
The ASUS EAH4670 Series utilizes a specially designed fansink that effectively dissipates heat away from the graphics card. This fansink quickly transfers heat away from the GPU to lower temperatures by a whopping 15ºC in comparison to reference design boards**. Besides this extraordinary cooling capacity, the fansink operates 16dB quieter than generic designed fansinks–catering to users who require maximum cooling without excessive fan rotation noise***.
Official “HDMI Certified” Graphic Cards
The HDMI format is defined, specified and governed by HDMI Licensing, LLC in the USA, and “HDMI Certified” products are able to meet all of the strict criteria as set out by HDMI Licensing. Utilizing any HDMI product that is not approved may result in poor performance, and can even void the warranty on other HDMI enabled hardware. Therefore, the “HDMI Certified” ASUS EAH4670 Series–which supports native HDMI, truly are the most trusted graphics cards for home theater enthusiasts.
Unprecedented Rock Solid Quality for Extraordinary Lifespans
Keeping in line with ASUS´ Rock Solid promise for quality, the EAH4670 and EN9400GT Series both come with several solutions to deliver top quality graphic performances. The LF PAK MOS guarantees more efficient power with less heat generation; while Japan-made solid capacitors lower power loss for more stable operations–even under long-term usage. Additionally, the EAH4670 Series also comes with EMI shielding to reduce 66% EMI interference–producing more stable signals; while DIP Spring Chokes lower temperatures by 5~10°C in comparison to traditional Toroidal Coil Chokes. Thus, users will enjoy extreme graphical performances and retain peace of mind with the ASUS EAH4670 and EN9400GT Series.
