Zotac GeForce GTX 590

Zotac Nvidia GeForce GTX 590 review

OverviewVying for the fastest graphics card ever title is Zotac's Nvidia GeForce GTX 590.So tick follows tock, as Intel and that bloke off the Guiness ad would say, and one big graphics card release follows another. It was barely a few weeks ago that AMD hit the shelves with its latest dual-GPU monolith, the AMD Radeon HD 6990, and now Nvidia is here with its first attempt at a DirectX 11 multi-GPU card.That's not to say this Zotac GeForce GTX 590 represents Nvidia's first foray into the world of the dual-GPU card. Oh no, Nvidia was there in the good ol' days of broken SLI support with the 7950GX2, then the 9800GX2 and finally its last in the shape of the GeForce GTX 295.They were never particularly popular cards though. Indeed, the 750GX2 was discontinued almost as soon as it hit the shelves. Okay, so that's a bit of an exaggeration, but if you'd just paid through the nose for a brand new card to see Nvidia discontinue support for it a few months later you'd be a little peeved. To say the least.But the GTX 295 wasn't a bad card and with that we thought Nvidia was back in the dual-GPU card game.
