Palit GT 240 Sonic Edition Graphics Card Review

Today Palit and nVidia have launched a new video card – the Palit GT240 Sonic Edition – which packs in 96 CUDA cores, and for this particular card, 1GB of GDDR5 memory, while other models should be available with 512MB and for less money. Palit is the first company to come out with a 1GB version of this card. The GPU core is built on the 40nm fabrication process with 128-bit bandwidth. Connectivity is through VGA, DVI, and HDMI. The card supports Microsoft DirectX 10.1 with Shader Model 4.1 support, OpenGL 3.2, nVidia CUDA technology, nVidia 3D Vision, nVidia PureVideo HD technology, amongst many other features. The card should use very little energy since it doesn’t even use an auxiliary power connector.

The GT 240 is intended to bring quality media and decent gaming for a decent price tag, but it is also suggested to be used as a PhysX processing card in an SLI setup with a more powerful card to enhance gameplay and further boost FPS. Palit GT 240 Sonic Edition perform very strongly in comparison to the competition. Overclocking wasn't too bad either, going from 585/1890/1424MHz to 699/2008/1701MHz without a hiccup. Read more...
