Evga offers a GTX 275 with an extra GTS 250 core.

Posted By: Steve McBarnes - 04:34:23 Wed, November 04, 2009

I wanted to post about this on Monday when I found the card in our parser, but I've been way too busy at work. I am totally posting about it now though! Evga has constructed a GTX 275 that features an added GTS 250 core for PhysX processing duties. This is a very unique thing to do and while I do think it is pretty cool, it makes the job of adding this card to our database harder. When creating a new reference card in out database we can only enter one GPU model for it. So the only thing I can do is add the card to our GTX 275 list and enter (+GTS 250 core) in the card name.

If you're interested in trying this card out for yourself, you can pre-order it now from Evga for $349.99. This one of a kind card comes with a coupon for a free copy of the totally sweet Batman Arkham Asylum game for the PC as well.

And... Cooling??? The GTX275 gets plenty hot on it's own.

Some innovation involving green team products? Is it 1998 again already?

So can this be SLIed with another GTX275? And if so, can the GTS250 be utilized as a dual monitor chip outside of PPU duties when the 2 275s are in SLI? That would be a neat option.

possibly yes but the dual monitor thing probably dependent on drivers..

but still if theyve come to this it means 1-nvidia is very i ntrouble and 2-companies are trying not to jump boat and stay with them...more reps for evga by the day

It's Alive! Frankenstein released on Halloween... how much more impudent and LAMO can the Green marketing machine get anymore! It walked two steps that night and fell flat on it's face... Good way to waste the dwindling profits guys.

I saw that hybrid GTS 250 GTX 275 chip on Newegg too, they're branding it as an NVIDIA Physx chip, which lead me to believe it was like the old ageia physx cards itself before I clicked it. However, it is a cut bitrate for the GTS 250; 192-bit. And a ridiculous frame buffer of 1,280MB. EVGA was the one that made it.
