Zebronics 8800GTS 320MB

We have with us, the Zebronics 8800GTS 320MB. This card comes in line with previous DirectX 10 performance monsters like the 8800GTX and the 8800GTS 640MB, to which it shares a lot of similarities. We will be pitching it against the 8800GTS 640 MB from XFX (not the overclocked version, but their regular one at stock speeds). The 8800GTS 320MB from Zebronics sells at Rs. 20,500 and the XFX 8800GTS 640MB is available for Rs. 29,000. There are other manufacturers like Leadtek (sold by Zebronics in India) that sell their 8800GTS 640 MB for Rs. 27,100. Let’s have a closer look at the Zebronics 8800GTS 320MB.

About the Card


The 8800GTS 320 MB has the same clock speeds as it's 640MB elder brother i.e. 500 MHz for the core and 1600 (800) MHz for the memory. It also has the same number of unified shaders or stream processors (96) as on the 640 MB. Basically, that translates into the same graphics core as on the 640 MB version. The only place they differ is the amount of local memory or frame buffer. Local memory would play a crucial role at higher resolutions using complex image enhancements like anti-aliasing. It would be interesting to see how the difference in performance matches to the difference in price and whether the 320MB version is a worthy alternative.
