The SPARKLE GeForce 8800 GT Cool-pipe 3 graphics card can maximize the usage of 80GB/s bandwidth ( doubled than 40GB/s PCI Express 1.1 can provide) provided by PCI Express 2.0, to be full ready for future games and applications which have strict requirements on bandwidth. At the same time, the SPARKLE GeForce 8800 GT Cool-pipe 3 graphics card is also compatible with present PCI Express 1.1 motherboards with widest scope of support.

Woohoo! Glad a passive 8800 GT didn't take long. Looking to upgrade my passive 8600 GT.

    I've been looking all over for this card but it doesn't appear to be for sale anywhere?

      I'm not sure if this passive card is already available. And even if it has been launched already it may be hard to find as the 8800 GT cards are in short supply.
