The first product in range is the XFX GeForce 6800 GS. The new graphic board can be clocked into the extreme, running on 485MHz / 1.10 GHz (effective), which is an increase of more than 10% compared to the reference run-rates (425/1.00 GHz). This performance was obtained because the used components have been selected with care and tested until they met the highest criteria. XFX GeForce 6800 GS is equipped with both analogue and digital connectors, providing compatibility with CRT and the large TFT monitors up to 1600x1200 resolutions. Completing the connectivity, an S-video port can be found on the bracket.

On the software side, the AI driver (which checks the configurations and selects the best driver based on different criteria) makes the installation of this board become very easy. For the more power users, XFX GeForce 6800 GS comes included with the Coolbits overclocking software. From Tenomichi, the video editing suite "3D EDIT" (worth 64 EU ) has been included. It enables the "home video-editor" to take control over his digital videos, using the full power of the GPU, utilizing real-time rendering on a normal desktop PC.

An S-video cable comes together with a DVI cable and the DVI>VGA converter for those who use CRT screens. The standard XFX GeForce 6800 GS will be available from 249 EU.
