Sparkle Announces the Factory Overclocked GeForce GTX 570 V-Go Graphics Card

In December of last year, Sparkle trumpeted loud and far its GTX 580 V-Go graphics card that the company claimed to be the first independently produced GTX 580 ever, and now, things are set to repeat themselves yet again, Sparkle just announcing the GeForce GTX 570 V-Go GPU.

Just as before, the Taiwanese company claims this is the first independently produced GeForce GTX 570 graphics card from an AIC, the GTX 570 V-Go managing to pass the rigorous tests imposed by Nvidia in order to assure that no custom design is inferior to their reference solution.

"V-Go, the series is represent the independent produced graphics cards, inherit the expertise spirit on graphics cards manufacturing for 16 years" said Kevin Wang the General Manager of Sparkle .

“We are pleased with the new high level of Sparkle R&D and production capabilities.

As another masterpiece of V-Go series, GeForce GTX570 V-Go Graphics Cards inherit the blood of Fermi 2.0 Architecture also has a better price advantage,” concluded the company's rep.

Compared to the previously released GTX 580 V-Go, the GTX 570 V-Go is available in two different versions, one featuring a slight core and memory overclock.

As a result, the SXX5701280D5SNM has its GPU running at 752MHz, 20MHz higher than Nvidia's reference design, while the 1280MB of GDDR5 video buffer memory runs at 3996MHz, a slight bump over the standard 3800MHz.

Built on the GF110 core, the GTX 570 graphics card runs 480 stream processors, 60 texturing and filtering units, 40 ROPs and features a 320-bit wide memory bus.

Both boards are equipped with double purple DVI-I and mini HDMI output interfaces and carry a blue PCB, making them more aesthetically pleasing than other cards that follow Nvidia's reference design.

No details were released as far as pricing is concerned, although I expect these to be priced similarly to other GTX 570-based GPUs as gaming performance isn't substantially improved.
