    As I posted earlier Asus, on Tuesday unveiled what it calls "the world's first hardware based real-time overclocking device for graphics cards" along with its new Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT-based graphics board.
    The tool may be useful for not very experienced overclockers. Asustek's OC Gear real-time overclocking device should be installed into a spare 5.25" bay and connected to an USB port.
    Specially developed software will allow end-users to adjust system master volume, graphics processing unit's (GPU's) clock-speed, GPU fan speed using a simple knob as well as monitor GPU temperature and current frames per second (FPS) information.
    The EN8600 GT OC Gear graphics card from Asus is equipped with 256MB of high-speed 1ns GDDR3 memory as well as high-performance cooling system, thus, can provide sufficient overclocking potential for those seeking additional performance.
    Card isnt available on ASUS Sri Lanka site,waiting for the action of LK agents in respond to these types.
    The cooler is basically a Zalman VF series one and little close to a Blue typhoon.
