Today we will manage a speedy review on a new product from Galaxy. In essence not new, as it's actually a graphics card that we tested before. Why new then you ask ? Well, back at the CeBIT in March 2005 they were showing a new concept they were working on specially for a small group of people, the tweakers among us. Basically what Galaxy will do is start a series of products with a switchable BIOS.

Face it there is a 2% crowd among us that constantly is overclocking, tweaking and BIOS modifying their graphics card. Galaxy figured, well there is a gap in the market, let's do something about it. I honestly respect companies that go for innovation and closely monitor the user experience. Quite honestly back in march I figured that the product, although innovative, would never hit retail as the demand would be way too small. I still think that Galaxy will have a tremendously hard time selling this product but despite my sentiments they did release the product and today we are testing it.

This review will not be as large since, as I stated, we already tested this product. We will therefore purely focus on the new functionality of this graphics cards and of course show you how to flash the BIOS.

The choice to do this with the 6600 GT model of course does not surprise me at all because hey, you can't go wrong with a GeForce 6600 GT, it offers so much fun and gameplay for its money. You'll have very respectable frame rates, all the neat technology features, the potential in a later date to upgrade to SLI and double your performance and so on. The sample we are testing today is based on NVIDIA's GeForce 6600 GT reference design, yet with a cool blue PCB, a copper heatsink from (I think) Zalman and the SmartFlash technology. It uses 128 MB (128-bit) GDDR3 memory, 500 MHz graphics core, 1000 MHz memory frequency. With its 8 pixel rendering pipelines and a PCI-Express interface it'll get your freak on :)
