xfx gt 240 300x264 XFX GeForce GT 240 ReleasedThe XFX NVIDIA GeForce GT 240 graphics card gives every PC a much-needed blast of power with an array of advanced technologies. Offered in either 512MB GDDR3 or a first-ever 1 GB GDDR5 version, both cards are powered by 96 NVIDIA CUDA cores that can vastly accelerate most applications; some as much as 50% faster than the prior generation.


NVIDIA PhysX technology takes gaming to the next level, enabling users to play Batman: Arkham Asylum or Darkest of Days 2X faster than the competition, and other titles, like Borderlands, up to 40% faster. Paired with another NVIDIA based graphics card, the GeForce GT 240 transforms into a dedicated PhysX card, delivering up to 50% pop in performance.


NVIDIA Unified Architecture delivers up to 2X the gaming performance of prior generation GPUs. Jagged edges vanish with 16x anti-aliasing technology, and NVIDIA’s Lumenex engine ensures stunning image quality and floating point accuracy at high frame rates.


Movie junkies can enjoy their YouTube- and Hulu-viewing experiences in full HD with new GPU-accelerated Adobe Flash 10.1. Unprecedented picture clarity and precise scaling is delivered with NVIDIA PureVideo HD technology, and high-quality scaling enables users to enlarge lo-res movies and videos to HDTV resolutions.


NVIDIA 3D Vision support brings a fully immersive stereoscopic 3D experience to any PC. Suddenly, 3D movies and 3D digital photographs render in eye-popping, crystal-clear quality.


The GeForce GT 240 takes the phrase “everyday tasks” out of any user’s vocabulary with a host of great support features, such as Microsoft Windows 7, DirectCompute, Open CL, OpenGL 3.2 and PC Express 2.0.


Dual-link DVI support drives the industry’s largest and highest resolution flat panel displays up to 2560×1600, and with support for high-bandwidth digital content protection.


No matter what you use your PC to do, the XFX NVIDIA GeForce GT 240 delivers the ultimate power boost. To learn more about XFX or the XFX NVIDIA GeForce GT 240 graphics card, please visit www.xfxforce.com.

    Is EVGA ( for now ) the only brand which have understand that low performance card, SHOULD NOT!!! have a dual slot cooler. Seriously, I hope that fan design is not the reference one because it simply suck. I way prefer all card in these categories which have a thinner fan and larger ran all over the card.

    Providing the price is right, this could turn in to a decent folding card.

    I would give 90$ for this card, if you assume that for 70$ you can have a 4670 which perform better but the extra 20$ worth the folding PPD.

    Sub- $100 would be a great price point for nVidia to hit with this card. It'd fly off the shelves for htpc's and folders alike. Unfortunately nVidia's market team doesn't know what the word 'budget' means, so it'll likely be around $130 - $140.
