If you haven't grown tired yet of all the recent reports on the GeForce 9800GT-based graphics card, then you might want to check out the latest offer coming from Inno3D. The company has recently revealed two new graphics cards that feature the above-mentioned NVIDIA graphics processor and the Hurricane and Accelero Twin Turbo GPU cooler, from ZeroTherm and Artic Cooling, respectively.

NVIDIA's GeForce 9800GT was released in late July as a mainstream-targeted graphics card that could deliver an impressive performance level at a competitive price tag. The latest offer from Inno3D comes to build on that performance level with two new models, which have been set to boost it with the help of two custom GPU coolers. Both the company's i-Chill Hurricane and Accelero Twin Turbo models are factory overclocked, which means that they will enable high-quality graphics, to satisfy even enthusiast gamers.

Because of their custom cooling solution, both cards will take up a considerable amount of space inside the user's desktop systems. On the other hand, we should also bear in mind that they aren't designed for average desktop computer users, but rather for those enthusiasts that go all out with their hardware components.

Both cards come with the same technical specifications, so the user is left only with the choice of the cooling solution. With a core speed of 700MHz and memory frequency of 2000MHz, Inno3D managed to raise the clock levels by up to 100MHz and 200MHz, respectively. Both cards provide the same 512MB of GDDR3 graphics memory and 112 stream processors as the reference card.

According to Inno3D, the cards will be offered in a game bundle, thus guaranteeing users an out-of-the box gaming experience. Unfortunately, the company made no announcement regarding pricing and availability for the bundle. Still, the cards, backed by 3 years' worth of warranty, will most likely make their way into stores quite soon.
