NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX
G80 enthusiast GPU, 2006. This entry records a distinct product or well-defined family; differences among revisions and similarly named models are called out below.
MODEL IDENTIFICATION: Match the full model/part number, revision, and region to the item label and its manufacturer documentation. Where a family has multiple revisions, specifications below are not universal across the family.
Recorded specifications
| Cataloged part | NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX |

| Key specifications | 128 unified shader processors; 768 MB GDDR3; 384-bit memory bus; PCIe x16; 2× 6-pin auxiliary power on reference design. |
| Interface / fit | Large dual-slot board; check power supply, case clearance, heat output, and legacy driver support. |
| Variants / identification | Partner models can differ in clocks and cooler; 8800 GTS/Ultra are different GPU configurations. |
| Archive record | Record full part number, hardware revision, serial/date code, firmware/BIOS, accessories, physical condition, and the documentation revision used for verification. |
Compatibility and handling
- Confirm the complete part number, connector signal/pinout, supported host, dimensions, power, firmware and operating-system requirements before use.
- Inspect for corrosion, cracked parts, bent pins, damaged insulation, failing bearings, leaking cells, or prior repair. Avoid powering unidentified or damaged hardware.
- For compatibility claims, cite a specific manual, CPU support list, interface standard, or tested host configuration; physical fit alone is insufficient.
- Record measurements with the test setup and instrument conditions; distinguish vendor maximums from measured or sustained results.
