Video is powered by the integrated, SLI-ready NVidia GeForce 8800 GTS graphics/video card with 512 MB of dedicated GDDR3 graphics memory. (GDDR3, short for Graphics Double Data Rate, version 3, is a graphics card-specific memory technology that's better able to deliver fluid frame rates for even the most advanced games and applications.) The 8800 GTS has a 650 MHz core clock and 1625 MHz shader clock, as well as a 64 GB/second memory bandwidth. With support for Microsoft DirectX 10 Shader Model 4.0 and High Dynamic-Range Lighting (HDR), it lets you rip through all of today's most advanced and cutting-edge games and applications. Power through games at record speeds with vividly realistic, sun-up to sun-down HDR lighting effects, and crank up 16x full-screen anti-aliasing without missing a beat. The fully unified shader core dynamically allocates processing power to geometry, vertex, physics, or pixel shading operations, delivering up to 2x the gaming performance of prior generation GPUs. And NVidia's SLI technology delivers up to 2x the performance of a single graphics card configuration for unequaled gaming experiences by allowing two graphics cards to run in parallel.

 Rating:  - Great systemThis is one of the best system I've ever own. If you are looking for a mid/high range system then this is the one for you. I've always been a fan of AMD and i know lately they been off the sack but they still producing. Rating:  - No Quality Assurance with IBUYPOWER1. It seems like a good deal when you look at the specs but when I got mine the motherboard was tilted a bit. This made the sound and video card shift in and out of the PCI slot with any movement.

This cost me an extra $200 but at lease the item works. 2. My mother bought one at the same time and it came with a glitch ... Read More Rating: - Very Disappointing.This is not what is advertised. For one, the product page told me that I was getting an NVIDIA GeForce 8800GT 512 MB video card. It's not. On the order page, it changed to an NVIDIA 8600GT 512 MB, and that's what I received. I did not notice the change from the product page to the order page until I received the product, and had gone back to look at everything.
