Albatron today released a GeForce FX 5700 card. Its GPU clock runs at 475MHz and his DDR II memory at 900MHz. It has a special cooling system called Wise Fan ll:
The FX5700U has been equipped with a patented “2+1 Backup”, triple-fan cooling system which has been upgraded from the previous “Wise Fan” and dubbed “Wise Fan ll”. With the “Wise Fan II”, the third fan (backup fan) will startup when any of the two primary fans malfunction or when the GPU temperature reaches 56°C. This provides ultimate protection for extreme-condition graphics performance. With the additional fans for this card, Albatron has also gone to great lengths to suppress fan noise down to about 25 dBA, almost 10 dBA less than most fans on the market today.
This card comes equipped with a versatile lineup of interface ports including D-Sub, DVI and TV-Out. Bundled software includes WinDVD Creator, “Duke NuKem: Manhattan Project” (retail version) and a 5 in 1 game pack CD-ROM. The Albatron GeForce FX5700U VGA was built for performance and reliability and focuses on providing the mainstream market a very attractive high-end alternative.
