Better Than Reality.

Gaming “reality” was once defined as having a graphics card that could deliver true-to-life images….until
complex images or more than one character entered the scene. Now, with XFX’s new GeForce® GTX 200
graphics cards, you can experience truly immersive 3D gaming experience that will make your heart race
and your palms sweat. Harnessing the power of second generation unified architecture, SLI technology
and top-of-the-line DirectX 10 support, an in-your-face experience, delivered in blazing fast frame rates,
is yours. Real life has never been this realistic.
