	GeForce - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The GPU was sometimes outperformed by GeForce 2 Ultra since the Ultra had a faster core clock; however, the GeForce 3 was able to outperform the Ultra at higher resolutions and when anti-aliasing was applied due to an improved and more efficient memory controller.
		GeForce 6 - Launched in April 2004, the GeForce 6 implements Vertex Shader 3.0 and Pixel Shader 3.0, corrects the weak shader performance of its predecessor (GeForce FX), and introduces SLI (Scalable Link Interface) capability.
		GeForce 7 - Launched in June 2005, the GeForce 7 is an evolutionary improvement on the GeForce 6 architecture.

	GeForce 6 Series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hence, on both technical and marketing terms, the Geforce 6 enabled NVidia to return to a position of competitiveness against its rival, ATI Technologies.
		As the very first Geforce 6 model, the 16 pixel pipeline GeForce 6800 Ultra (NV40) was 50-80% faster than NVidia's previous top-line product (the GeForce FX 5950 Ultra), packed twice the number of pixel pipelines, and added a much improved pixel-shader architecture.
		The GeForce 6500 was released in October 2005 is based on the same NV44 core as the GeForce 6200TC, but with a higher GPU clock speed and more memory.

		NVIDIA’s mantra last year for their GeForce FX chips was the depth of their GPUs’ pipelines, eschewing a wide architecture for a narrow (think four pixel pipelines) yet deep one.
		The high-end chip of the new GeForce 6 series, the 6800 Ultra, is roughly twice as fast as the company’s best GPU from last year, bringing NVIDIA back to a very strong position with the market from both a performance and technology perspective.
		The GeForce 6 series is comprised of three models: the 6800 Ultra, the 6800 GT, and the vanilla 6800.

		The former was a very capable competitor to the GeForce 6600 GT, while the Radeon X800GTO was left in unchartered waters with no real competition on the market, as the GeForce 6800 Std was not a match for it by any stretch of the imagination.
		The PCB closely resembles the GeForce 7800 GT's PCB, with some subtle differences in the power circuitry at the end of the card.
		GeForce 6800 GS is an SLI ready video card, so it is possible to a second card a little later on for improved gaming performance.

	GeForce 6600 GT AGP Roundup (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Sure, the GeForce 6600 GT features half the number of pixel/vertex units, and only a 128-bit memory controller, but thanks to its blazing clock speeds, this is more than enough to outperform last year’s high-end graphics card, the $500 RADEON 9800 XT, in many cases.
		Besides the addition of the HSI chip, the second physical difference you’ll notice on GeForce 6600 GT AGP boards in comparison to their PCI Express-based cousins is the presence of a 4-pin Molex power connector on the back of the card.
		Unlike PCI Express, the AGP interface doesn’t have quite enough juice to supply the GeForce 6600 GT’s NV43 GPU with enough native power, an external source is required to run the card at full clocks (if the Molex power connection isn’t used, the core underclocks itself to 300MHz).

	Nvidia GeForce 6800 Ultra Hands-On Preview
		When the first GeForce FX did ship, it only featured a 128-bit memory interface, which required Nvidia card manufacturers to use faster, more expensive memory just to get close to the memory bandwidth offered by ATI's 256-bit memory interface.
		Nvidia did correct the issue by including a 256-bit memory interface with the GeForce FX 5900 release, but another crisis emerged when Valve's Gabe Newell openly criticized the GeForce FX's full-precision floating point performance under Pixel Shader 2.0.
		Nvidia smoothed over the incident by acknowledging that games needed special optimizations for the GeForce FX and indicating that the next driver release would have optimizations for Valve's Half-Life 2, but Nvidia still took a significant blow in the eyes of consumers.

	GeForce 6800 SLI Performance: MSI's NX6800 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Ironically enough, when NVIDIA first introduced their PCI Express GeForce 6 cards last June, the only products in the pipeline that were officially announced were the GeForce 6800 Ultra and the GeForce 6800 GT PCI-E: GeForce 6800 PCI-E was nowhere to be found; NVIDIA was focusing their efforts solely on the GT and Ultra parts.
		One key difference between the GeForce 6800 AGP and GeForce 6800 PCI-E is memory clock frequency: while AGP 6800 cards ship at 350MHz (700MHz effective), the memory used on PCI Express GeForce 6800 cards runs 50MHz slower, at just 300MHz (600MHz effective).
		This means that PCI Express GeForce 6800 cards are effectively giving up 3.2GB/sec of peak memory bandwidth to their AGP cousins, which can have ramifications at higher resolutions (or when AA/AF is used).

		As its name implies, the GeForce 6800 GS is a new addition to the GeForce 6 Series, and as such it offers essentially the same feature set as the older GeForce 6 cards that came before it.
		For more information on the GeForce 6 architecture, we recommend taking a look at this article, and more information about SLI is available here.
		Strictly from a feature standpoint, the GeForce 6800 GS is much like the older 12-pipe GeForce 6800, but due to some refinements to the core, the use of a more advanced.11 micron manufacturing process, and GDDR3 memory, NVIDIA was able to ramp clock speeds much higher than their previous 12-pipe product.
