Sparkle Introduced Super Clock Technology (SCT)

SPARKLE Computer Co., Ltd., the professional VGA card manufacturer andsupplier, today announced SPARKLE Super Clock Technology (SCT). Through this newSCT, users will immediately get additional 3D power for their favorite games outof box. GeForce 8 Graphic cards with higher shader clock out of box will delivermore smooth DirectX10 gaming experience with same retail prices.

With an impressive lineup of R&D team, SPARKLE proudly introduced SCT whichis now used in all GeForce 8 Graphic Cards. Instead of simply raising core speedand memory speed, SCT effectively exalts the stream processors' clock to extremefast situation by using NiBiTor software to achieve lightning speed. Detail ofusing NiBiTor software, please refer to the article written by G.F :http://eng.mobile01.com/newsdetail.php?id=3584

Now stream processors which operate shader special effects can furnish a greatnumber of stream processors dependent games with extraordinary 3D renderingmight. By enjoying SCT out of box, our customers can feast their eyes ongorgeous DirectX 9 and DirectX 10 gaming environments without worrying about theastaticism and excess working heat brought by traditional overclocking method.

Now GeForce 8 series graphic cards can deliver ULTRA-realistic DirectX 9 andDirectX 10 gaming experiences and unparalleled image quality with SCT.Thanks tothis SPARKLE exclusive technology, now we can check the performance benefitbrought by overclocking GeForce 8500 GT graphic card's stream processors (shaderclock) below:

From 3DMark05 test result, we can clearly see that the performance raised to7.27% when only overclock the core speed from 600MHz to 650MHz, and if we simplyuse SCT to raise the stream processors (shader clock) from 1300MHz to 1560MHz,the performance raised to 14.55%, and if we use SCT to raise both core speed andstream processors (shader clock) , the performance rocketed to 20.81%.From3DMark 06 test result, we can get similar conclusion. So by using SCT, we canget much more performance benefit compared with traditional core or memoryoverclocking.

“The stream processors play a very important role at DirectX 9 and DirectX 10gaming rendering, so pc gamers can take great advantage from SCT. "said KevinWang, sales director of SPARKLE Computer Co., Ltd. "Thanks to our smart RDengineers, SPARKLE can provide much higher shader clock compared with NVIDIAreference boards in all series of GeForce 8 Graphic Cards. Now our consumerscan immediately enjoy the extra performance out of box brought by extreme faststream processors."
