This video card uses four GDDR3 512-Mbit 1.4 ns chips from Infineon (HYB18H512321AF-14), making its 256 MB video memory (512 Mbits x 4 = 256 MB). These chips can run up to 1.4 GHz (700 MHz DDR). On this video card the memory chips are overclocked and run at 1.6 GHz, 200 MHz (14.28%) above the maximum clock rate labeled for these memory chips.

We removed its heatsink to take a look. It uses nVidia’s reference model, which is completely copper-made, as you can see on Figure 5. The heatsink doesn’t touch the memory chips, so no cooling solution is used on the memory chips.
