NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra 512MB Now Available

Second to None: Alienware Systems with NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra 512MB Graphics

NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra 512MB

Alienware high-performance desktop gaming systems are now available with NVIDIA® GeForce™ 6800 Ultra graphics featuring 512MB of dedicated high-speed graphics memory. Configured individually or in NVIDIA SLI mode, the result is an unparalleled gaming experience without sacrifice: unparalleled visuals and mind-blowing speed.

Designed with Ultra High Detail gaming in mind, the GeForce 6800 Ultra with 512MB provides enough graphics memory to sustain the highest levels of performance in the most demanding 3D games such as Doom 3.

Note: 256MB memory buffer defaults to lower-quality mode when Ultra High Detail mode is requested with 16xFSAA and 8xAF

Advanced 512MB memory allows complex rendering operations such as anti-aliasing (FSAA) to smooth jagged pixel edges, enhanced texture filtering (AF) for razor sharp scene detail, and pixel shader calls for ultra realistic visual effects. All of these operations come together to produce a gaming experience like no other, providing maximum detail at the highest resolutions with no sacrifice to performance.

Double-Barreled Graphics

NVIDIA SLI Technology

Alienware offers the revolutionary approach of combining multiple GPUs in a single system to enable screaming, boundless performance. NVIDIA® SLI™, or Scalable Link Interface, is a next-generation technology that allows users to experience enhanced graphics performance by having multiple NVIDIA® GPUs in a single system. SLI works by intelligently scaling geometry and fill rate performance for two GPUs.

The Stuff 3D Dreams are Made of…

At the heart of SLI technology is a critical core of cutting-edge components. An SLI-ready system board, SLI-ready graphics cards, and a high-bandwidth SLI bridge all operate in perfect harmony to deliver the kind of power you need – up to double the speed of non-SLI systems!

SLI-Ready System Board

At the foundation of Alienware systems with SLI technology is the NVIDIA nForce™4 SLI™ chipset, a high-performance platform processor providing two PCI Express graphics slots to accommodate two NVIDIA SLI-ready graphics cards.

NVIDIA SLI-Ready Graphics Cards

NVIDIA SLI-ready graphics cards are designed around qualified NVIDIA PCI-Express GPUs such as the GeForce 6800 Ultra 512MB. SLI-based GPUs are embedded with high-speed communication capabilities that allow them to easily interact with one another and efficiently share the graphics workload, delivering unbelievable performance.
