Albatron Technology announced its new GeForce FX5700U graphics card today(before the Nvidia's launch).
5700 Ultra – NV36 is currently being highly touted by nVIDIA and contains impressive performance capabilities including a 475 MHz GPU clock speed and a DDR II memory interface capable of 900 MHz. This card also comes with nVIDIA’s latest versions of CineFXTM (ver 2.0), Intellisample HCT (High-resolution Compression Technology), and UltrashadowTM Technology, making up the industry’s most powerful suite of firmware and software technology for the graphics market.

The FX5700U has been equipped with a patented “2+1 Backup”, triple-fan cooling system which has been upgraded from the previous “Wise Fan” and dubbed “Wise Fan ll”. With the “Wise Fan II”, the third fan (backup fan) will startup when any of the two primary fans malfunction or when the GPU temperature reaches 56°C. This will provide ultimate protection for extreme-condition graphics performance. Albatron claims only 25 dBA as fan noise for the card(1 fan maybe, dunno)

This card comes equipped with a versatile lineup of interface ports including D-Sub, DVI and TV-Out. Bundled software includes WinDVD Creator, Duke NuKem: Manhattan Project and a 5 in 1 game pack CD
