MSI introduced its N220GT and N210 graphics cards:
MSI, leading global graphics card and motherboard manufacturer, just announced the launch of the N220GT/N210 graphics cards series to meet users’ demands for top-notch quality at an ideal price-performance level. These all-new graphics cards series implement advanced 40nm GPUs with full support for the latest DirectX 10.1 multimedia gaming standard, sport MSI Military Class components for greatest stability and even support native HDMI output offering the most crisp audio-visual experience available on the market today. This is the ideal solution for price-performance conscience users with high demands.
Entirely new 40nm process Graphics Processing Unit
The all-new MSI N220GT/N210 series of graphics cards use advanced 40nm GPUs allowing for the implementation of substantially more transistors on the same surface area and at the same time increasing energy efficiency. This also results in much lower operating temperatures even under full load or during overclocking.
Official implementation of the DirectX 10.1 multimedia standard
In addition to the sophisticated manufacturing process the latest MSI N220GT and N210 series are also the first NVIDIA models to support the DirectX 10.1 multimedia gaming standard. In combination with DirectX 10.1 enabled games users will experience even more like-like special effects and engage in the most immersive gaming experience ever.
Implementation of MSI's Military Class components
At the same time the MSI N220GT and N210 series graphics cards use solid state capacitors, solid state chokes (SSCs) and other Military Class components to further increase absolute stability. These important measures don’t only increase stability under heavy work load but also increase lifespan. Furthermore electrical noise that traditional components are bound to cause, is minimized and over-all stability is maximized.
Full support for native HDMI output
Apart from performance and stability considerations, the latest MSI N220GT and N210 series have also been built to meet high definition audio-visual demands by offering native HDMI output. Now users don’t need to worry about multiple cables anymore and can easily and directly hook up their LCD TV with one single cable combining audio and video. This dramatic reduction of various cables makes the MSI N220GT and N210 series an ideal component to an HTPC platform.
