GeForce 6600 GT AGP: specs and benchmarks
Summary
NVIDIA started GeForce 6600 GT AGP sales 14 November 2004. This is a desktop graphics card based on a Curie architecture and made with 110 nm manufacturing process. It is primarily aimed at gamer market. 128 MB of GDDR3 memory clocked at 0.48 GHz are supplied, and together with 128 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 15.2 GB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is a single-slot graphics card attached via AGP 8x interface. 1x Molex power connector is required, and power consumption is at 47 Watt.
