Inno3D Dares Nvidia. The Cheaper Version of the Famous GeForce 7600 Series

Inno3D recently released the company's latest development - a highly overclocked graphics card - the GeForce 7600 GST - which is, in fact, an enhanced replica of Nvidia's GeForce 7600 GT, informs Hardware Secrets.

As you already know, the GeForce 7600 GT runs at 560 MHz and accesses its memory at 1.4 GHz, while the new GeForce 7600 GS is said to run in normal conditions at 400 MHz, accessing its memory at 800 MHz (400 MHz DDR). Consequently, as both models benefit from almost the same technical details, the sole difference is the price. Inno3D can be purchased at a lower price.

"The name implies that this product isn't a regular GeForce 7600 GS and, at the same time, it isn't also a GeForce 7600 GT. While "T" probably stands for "Turbo", the name chosen may also suggest that this product has a performance level between GS and GT. This name is also great if you think that some manufacturers don't label properly their overclocked models, making it very hard to correctly identify such models," write Hardware Secrets' editors.

Only a few days ago, some rumors emerged regarding a new Nvidia development, which will be available on the retail market in July or August. Several upgraded editions of its famous graphic cards - the GeForce 7900 GTX and the GeForce 7900 GT - will support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) are said to be ready for a worldwide launch.

The undisclosed sources, some Taiwan graphics card makers, added that Flextronics will be, in fact, the manufacturer, let's say supplier, of the Nvidia labeled graphics cards, as it has been up until now.

Consequently, the low-end 7300 model, the G72 to be more specific, will not feature any modifications, but the high-end 7900, the G73-B1, and will provide audio mixing. However, if you will opt for the low-end, then you will have to add a transmitter chip which will support the HDMI.
