14 DAY TRIAL // The launch of Battlefield 3 may have passed, but this hasn’t stopped Cool3D from releasing a new version of Nvidia’s GeForce GTX 570 graphics card that comes complete with a voucher for downloading the full version of the EA’s popular title.
Despite its new Battlefield 3 branding the design of the card doesn’t feature any elements to remind us of the game that it’s bundled with, and pretty much resembles other Club3D solutions based on Nvidia GF110 GPU.
The cooling solution employed was also borrowed from another Club3D GTX 570 design, and it uses the company’s CoolStream technology which is comprised out of a full length heatsink cooled by a single centrally placed fan.
According to the Club3D, this was specially designed in order to provide better airflow to the components placed on the printed circuit board as well as lower operating temperatures.
Despite this new cooler design, Club 3D's graphics card comes with the standard 732MHz GPU core and 1464MHz stream processor clock while the 1280MB of GDDR5 memory is running at 3800MHz.
Just like all the other GTX 570 solutions available, Club 3D's model features two dual link DVI ports and a HDMI output, the card being compatible with Nvidia SLI and the 3D Vision Surround technology.
No information regarding pricing or availability of the GTX 570 Battlefield 3 Limited Edition graphics card was made public by Club3D, but this isn’t expected to cost much more than other GTX 570 graphics cards out there.
As you must certainly know by now, the GTX 570 is based on the same GF110 core as its older brother, the GTX 580.
As a result, the GPU coming with 480 CUDA cores, a 320-bit memory bus interface as well as 40 ROP units and 60 FP16 texturing units.
