This time Manli released their new product the Manli Geforce 9600OC 512MB GDDR3 to enable them compete in the mainstream market. This graphic card is using the 9600 GT chipset, which had been downgraded on the stream processor from 96 core to 48 core but with overclocked core and memories.
This graphic card is already equipped with Arctic Cooling HSF to overcome the heat during workload. Unfortunately, it doesn’t come with steel holder to keep the graphic card straight. The effect is that the graphic card looks a bit bent, even though it doesn’t interfere with its performance.
The card is stable enough at testing. Chip magazine tried to test it by playing Company of Heroes with 1024 x 768 screen resolution. It can be said that the card could play the game at medium setting.
Looking at the test results it can be said the card is quick. Even though it only has 48 Streaming Processors the Overclocking did quite an effect and overall it offers a very good performance. Another testing using CUDA shows a good performance that would make it suitable for playing with images with Adobe Photoshop CS4.
Conclusion:
The Manli Geforce 9600OC 512MB GDDR3 is a card with good performance. A good choice for its class and it comes with very good HSF.
