We said previously that even though NVIDIA partners overclock their cards to 500/1100MHz, Gainward will go even higher. It's traditionally faster cards will end up with the interesting Gainward PowerPack! Ultra/1960PCX XP "Golden Sample" GLH name where GLH stands for "Goes Like Hell". This card will end up working at a 540MHz+ core and 1200MHz GDDR3 1.6ns memory. It will have 128MB of memory and will go to selected press this week, while end users will be able to get it for €349 next week. An AGP version will be available in early November.

The second version of the card Gainward PowerPack! Ultra/1960PCX XP Golden Sample will end up clocked at 520MHz+ core and 128 MB of 2.0ns DDR3, possibly clocked at the reference 1000MHz and will come at a spicy €299 price, while the last non-Golden Sample clocked at 500MHz core and 128 MB or 2.0ns GDDR3 will cost €249. All cards come with Dual DVI and Vivo capabilities. Gainward is pushing the envelopes for the nth time and that's what people like about its cards. The cards come at a price, but with quite some performance.
