GeCube launched its HD 2000 V-Fins series graphics cards, the GC-VX26PG2-D3 and GC-VHD24PL2-D3.
V-Fins series graphics cards have an exclusively designed V-shaped heat sink pair with an air-vent bracket to speed up the natural airflow and lower the graphics chip temperature, according to GeCube.
The V-Fins series graphics cards support UVD (universal video decoder) technology and 1080p/1080i resolutions and Blu-ray and HD-DVD playback, noted the company.
