So, what we have here at the end is a "sleeper" graphics card. In the auto world, they're cars that people drive around that don't look fast, but packs a powerful engine hiding underneath. These are called "sleeper" cars. While they have a meek facade, they'll surprise the racer next to him once the race begins. The ECS 8800 GT 256MB Graphics Card has replaced the 8600 GTS and HD 3870 512MB cards in their entirety because it's that much faster. This is the new king of the budget cards that performs much better than budget.
