This entry in the GPU Database of oZone3D is devoted to the NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GS that has been offered by our sponsor GIGABYTE. The GIGABYTE 7900 GS is a middle market video controller with yet a tendency turned towards the up market. The 7900 GS is a bridled version of the 7900 GT: the GS one features 20 pixel pipeline and 7 vertex pipelines while the GT offers 24pp and 8 vp. Despite this small running speed, the GIGABYTE 7900 GS plays one's game well, thanks to a quite aggressive factory made overclocking : 720MHz for the memory and almost 550MHz for the shadercore! Here we reach frequencies that are close to a 7950 GT one....
