Nvidia increases the number of stream processors integrated in the GeForce GTX 260 graphic cards. The rest of the technical specifications haven’t changed, but many partners have decided to overclock these cards by default. That’s Zotac’s case, with their GeForce GTX 260 AMP2 Edition.

The Zotac GeForce GTX 260 AMP2! differentiates itself from the previous GeForce GTX 260 AMP! Edition only on the number of stream processors, leaving all the other features unchanged. Therefore, it features: a GUP with 650MHz frequency combined with 1.400MHz stream processors and 876 MB video memory, with an effective clock of 2100MHz; interesting increase for the GPU, with an increase of +11,3% for the clock and 12.7% for the stream processors.

The card is identical to its precedessor in layout and build, the only element that helps identify it is a different image on the plastic protection that covers the cooling system, in which it shows the AMP2! Edition sign. Despite the clock frequency enhancements, Zotac considered the card had enough power supply to handle it: hence, we will find two 6-pin PCI Express power supply connectors in this card as well.

The bundle pack supplied by Zotac features all the traditional connectors and adapters for video-in, also an user’s manual and a CD-ROM with all the installation drivers. The manufacturer also decided to feature, together with the card, the game Racedriver GRID, developed by Codemaster and one of the most interesting automobilistic simulators on the market so far.
