Features

Leadtek's Exclusive Fanless Heatpipe Cooler
The use of the fanless heatpipe cooler offers a noiseless working environment. The innovative 3-heatpipe system helps to create a true noise-free computer and provide excellent cooling results.

New PX9600 GT Performance-driven Layout
New space-efficient PCB layout refines electrical characteristics to provide higher yield rate, better reliability, and longer service life. It also enhances overclocking capabilities without system instability.

PCI Express 2.0 support
Designed to run perfectly with the new PCI Express 2.0 bus architecture, offering a future-proofing bridge to tomorrow's most bandwidth-hungry games and 3D applications by maximizing the 5 GT/s PCI Express 2.0 bandwidth (twice that of first generation PCI Express). PCI Express 2.0 products are fully backwards compatible with existing PCI Express motherboards for the broadest support.

HDCP Capable
Allows playback of HD DVD, Blu-ray Disc, and other protected content at full HD resolutions with integrated High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) support. (Requires other compatible components that are also HDCP capable.)

All Solid Aluminum Capacitors

Estimation of Life Time	Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor	Aluminum Solid Capacitor
85C	8,000 h	20,000 h
65C	32,000 h (3.6 years)	200,000 h (22 years)

To ensure the high durability and stability even during overclocking and extreme condition, PX9600 GT use high-quality solid aluminum capacitors from the world's leading vendors. Solid aluminum capacitors are known for their reliability, durability and adaptability to high temperatures environments without the worry of problems such as electrolyte leakage or high heat generation.
