Another GTX 280 graces our labs. Let's see how it competes against the overclocked version from XFX.
High clock speeds, PhysX and CUDA, good warranty service
Power hungry, poor overclocker
In the previous review we saw the Zotac GTX 260 'Amp' Edition put on an impressive show and at times it was just behind the XFX GTX 280 'XXX' by few fps. The Zotac's version of the GTX 280 is again from the 'Amp Edition' line up. The core is clocked at a whopping 700MHz compared to the XFX whose core is just 670MHz. If those numbers are any indication, I expect better performance over the XFX GTX 280. The rest of the specs are the same and we'll take a look at it next.

Off the topic: Techtree the new Ad system that you have implemented is as irritating as hell. Everytime I go to new page I have to close that ugly 1 inch thick Black banner. Please remove this system as soon as possible.

Quite agree. I use FF, i could remove the ad but not the black bar at the bottom. Any suggestion how to remove the "bottom page" ads in FF.
