Sparkle has teamed up with nVidia to produce the Sparkle GTX260 Core 216, a graphics card that stands as a direct challenger to AMD's Radeon 4870 graphics card.
The "Core 216" part of the Sparkle GTX260 Core 216 videocard's name refers to the GPU having additional shader processors enabled. While the original Geforce 260 GTX had 192 shader processors, the Core 216 variant has an additional 24 enabled, for a grand total of, you guessed it, 216 shader processors. That means this PCI Express 2.0 x16 videocard has a little more raw computing power than the original Geforce GTX 260 did. Sparkle's GTX260 Core 216 videocard packs in 896MB of onboard GDDR3 memory, is PCI Express 2.0 x16 compliant and locked at the default speed of 576MHz, the shaders hum away at 1242MHz, while the GDDR3 memory runs at an even 999MHz.
