Product Identity

The EVGA GeForce 7600GS 256-P2-N549-TR is a PCI Express x16 graphics card built around the NVIDIA GeForce 7600GS GPU. It delivers a 400 MHz core clock, 12 pixel pipelines and 256MB of GDDR2 memory on a 128-bit bus with an 800 MHz effective memory clock. The card supports DirectX 9 and OpenGL 2.0 for period-correct software compatibility.

Ideal For Retro Builds

This card suits enthusiasts assembling a Windows XP or early Vista system that requires native AGP-era driver support through a PCI Express slot. It provides DVI, D-SUB and S-Video outputs for CRT or early LCD displays. Builders needing Shader Model 3.0, DirectX 10 or modern compute APIs should select a newer architecture instead.

12 Pixel Pipelines Decide Fit

The 12 pixel pipelines define the card's vertex and fragment throughput for DirectX 9 titles. If your target software demands higher pipeline counts or unified shaders, this GPU will bottleneck performance. Verify that your workload matches the 7600GS pipeline specification before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will my motherboard need a PCI Express x16 slot for the EVGA GeForce 7600GS 256-P2-N549-TR?

Yes, the card installs in a single PCI Express x16 slot and draws power directly from that slot without an extra connector.

Can I run this 7600GS alongside an older AGP card in the same system?

No, the board uses a PCI Express x16 interface so it cannot coexist with an AGP card; the motherboard supports only one primary graphics interface.

How do I verify the 256MB GDDR2 memory is running at its 800MHz effective speed after installation?

Open the NVIDIA control panel or a tool like GPU-Z; the memory clock should read 800 MHz effective on a 128-bit bus.
