The NVIDIA® GeForce® GTS 250 GPU enables full-throttle lifelike game play at intense resolutions and provides optimal power management with HybridPower™ technology(1). The PureVideo® HD engine delivers unmatched video quality featuring scene-optimized color and contrast enhancement while the NVIDIA PhysX™ technology(2) pushes the limit in ultra realistic game play. And when coupled with nForce® SLI®-ready motherboards, provides amplified performance up to 2x in a dual SLI configuration and up to 2.8x in 3- way SLI(1) mode. Packing more performance at an exceptional value, this GPU offers extreme HD gaming and a first-class entertainment experience.

		NVIDIA CUDA technology unlocks the power of the hundreds of cores in your NVIDIA GeForce graphics processor (GPU) to accelerate every day applications beyond gaming. NVIDIA CUDA technology has become widely adopted by thousands of software programmers to acceleratre the most performance hungry applications. With millions of CUDA capable GPUs already deployed, thousands of software programmers and leading universities around the world are already using CUDA software to redefine the capabilities of the PC.
		Delivering Physics in games is no easy task. It's and extremely compute-intensive environment based on a unique set of physics algorithms that require tremendous ammounts of similtaneous calculations. The best way to get real time physics , such as explosions that cause dust and debris, characters with life-like motion or cloth that drapes and tears naturally is with an NVIDIA PhysX ready GeForce processor. Already Widely adopted by over 150 games PhysX technology takes gaming to a new level.
