Today we take a look at two of such none-reference clocked 9600GT video cards, one from newcomer Vvikoo and one from last year startup, TwinTech. We´ll investigate how the extra clocks make the product stand out compared to 3 other samples we have tested before.

TwinTech, established since 1999 in France, has been crowned as official NVIDIA distributor since 2006. With the release of NVIDIA's G80 late 2006, it was an excellent opportunity for TwinTech to make their name in the VGA market. TwinTech3D Technology is dedicated in the manufacturing and distribution of quality computer components. Strong competition demands them to combine all the advantage of technology vision, technology know-how, and the cost competitiveness of production. We visited them at Cebit earlier this year where we got eye for one of their upcoming videocards, the 9600GT XXT:

Vvikoo is very new to the computer business, for now they're specifically aiming at the VGA market but with all this competition around they're sure in for a tug fight. For now they've covered quite a wide range of products, even though they've been releasing product as late as 2007 they have all ready covered the whole GeForce 8, 9 and Radeon HD2x00 series. Today we'll be looking at their Turboclocked 9600GT:
