EVGA GeForce GTX 590 Classified 3GB graphics card

Dual-GPU GTX 590 Classified 3GB

The EVGA GeForce GTX 590 Classified combines two Fermi GPUs on a single PCI Express 2.0 x16 card. It delivers 1024 CUDA cores split across the pair, clocked at 630 MHz core and 1242 MHz shader. Three gigabytes of GDDR5 memory run on a 768-bit bus at an effective 3456 MHz. The board supports DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.1 for compatible titles.

Built for multi-monitor SLI rigs

This card suits enthusiasts running NVIDIA 3D Vision Surround across three DVI outputs or the Mini DisplayPort. SLI support allows a second GTX 590 for quad-GPU scaling. Builders needing modern display connectors, lower power draw, or single-GPU driver simplicity should consider newer architectures instead.

768-bit memory interface decides fit

The 768-bit bus feeds both GPUs simultaneously, defining bandwidth for high-resolution textures at 2560 x 1600. If your workload demands that specific bus width and the 3 GB frame buffer, the Classified matches the requirement. Any other memory configuration will not provide the same dual-GPU balance.
