Galaxy GTX 285 with 2Gb Benchmarked

Featuring the third-party chip to support DisplayPort, this card also offers DVI and S-Video connectivity. The GDDR3 memory chips carry the model number H5RS1H23MFR-N2C which are specified to run at 1200 MHz. Instead of 16MX32bit on most GTX285, Galaxy has chosen 32MX32bit to form memory size of 2GB.

There seems to be some game which benefit from the extra Gb of memory, although it's not the games you expected, Far Cry 2 and Crysis Warhead see no benefit from the extra memory, even when using 16xAA

no increase in minimum framerate, I bet the bonus is not worth the cash at all.
