Sparkle has announced yet another card in its Calibre Series, this time with the dual fan Geforce 9600GT GPU. This non-reference card works at 700MHz for the core.

As mentioned, this card is based on the 9600GT GPU that works at 700MHz, and it comes with 512MB of GDDR3 memory that ended up clocked at 1,000MHz (2GHz effective). Shaders got overclocked to 1850MHz. The most interesting part is the new cooler, called Dual Fly Cooling.

This cooling concept uses copper core inside the aluminum die-casting thermal base which uses a heatpipe placed inside the thermal base to efficiently transfer the heat from the GPU. The heat is then transfered to the 0.2mm cooling fins by two circular heatpipes. Two cooling fans do the rest of the work. These two fans can be lifted and positioned to cool not only the MOS but the entire PCB. According to the press release this can lower the temperature of up to 10°C for the PGU and 5°C for the entire case, and all that at around 29dBAs of noise.

With the black PCB and this kind of cooling system Sparkle's new Calibre will certainly find its place in the market. The cards should be available soon, and we managed to find it listed here for €145.95, including VAT. Unfortunately, the card is out of stock and we are still waiting for the availability info, so you can either stalk that site or check back here when we update the story with the availability date.
