GV-N260 Series Graphics Accelerator - 4 1. Introduction 1.1. Features • Powered by NVIDIA® GeForceTM GTX 260 Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) • Supports PCI Express 2.0 • Integrated with 896 MB GDDR3 memory • Supports DirectX 10 • Supports NVIDIA® SLI TM (Scalable Link Interface) technology (Note 1) • Supports 2 Dual-Link DVI-I connectors(Only for GV-N26UD-896M Rev1.0) • Supports Dual-Link DVI-I / D-Sub / HDMI connectors(Only for GV-N26UD-896M Rev2.0) • Supports HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) technology 1.2. Minimum System Requirements • Hardware -550-watt system power supply specification or above is recommended. -Intel® Pentium® 4 or AMD AthlonTM XP class -1 GB of system memory; 2 GB or more for best performance -Optical drive for software installation (CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive) • Operating System -Windows® Vista -Windows® XP with Service Pack 2 (SP2) -Windows® XP Professional x64 Edition • SLI TM Configuration If you are planning on using this graphics card as part of an SLI system, the following are required: -An SLI certified motherboard with two/three PCIe x16 slots and correct chipset driver -Two GV-N26UD-896M for SLI configuration; Three GV-N26UD-896M for 3-way SLI configuration -A power supply with 900-watt or above is recommended -An SLI bridge connector or 3-way SLI bridge connector (Note 1) SLI technology requires a PCI Express motherboard with two/three x16 physical connectors. Graphics cards working in an SLI configuration must be with the same model name (e.g. GV-N26UD-896M) and from the same vendor (e.g. GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY). -5 - Introduction 2.

Power is taken from the PCI Express host bus as well as the two 6-pin PCI Express power connectors. If you want to use the included 6-pin power adapters, make sure the adapter fits 12V/15A specification. Failure to do so may jeopardize the stability of the graphics card. 6-pin Power Adapter Requires at least 12V corrent rating of 15A Incorrect Connection (The two 4-pin power connectors on the adapter are connected to the same system power supply cable.) Correct Connection (The two 4-pin power connectors on the adapter are connected to two independent system power supply cables.) GV-N260 Series Graphics Accelerator - 8 Expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you work on your computer. 1. Turn off your computer and unplug power supply. 2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power supply case. 3. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the components whenever the components are separated from the system. The card contains sensitive electric components, which can be easily damaged by static electricity, so the card should be left in its original packing until it is installed. Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded anti-static mat. The operator should be wearing an anti-static wristband, grounded at the same point as the anti-static mat. Inspect the card carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling may cause damage to your card. Be sure there are no shipping and handling damages on the card before proceeding. DO NOT APPLY POWER TO YOUR SYSTEM IF THE GRAPHICS CARD IS DAMAGED. In order to ensure that your graphics card can work correctly, please use official GIGABYTE BIOS only. Using non-official GIGABYTE BIOS might cause problem(s) on the graphics card. -9 - Hardware Installation 2.2. Hardware Installation Now that you have prepared your computer, you are ready to install your graphics card. Step 1. Locate the PCI Express x16 slot. If necessary, remove the metal cover from this slot; then align your graphics card with the PCI Express x16 slot, and press it in firmly until the card is fully seated. Make sure that the gold edge connector of the graphics card is securely inserted. Step 2. Repla...
