    Gainward made a name for themselves years ago with their "Golden Sample" video card series.  These cards were clocked up or had some other special features that set them apart.  We really haven''t heard a lot from Gainward over the past year, but MVKTech has a look at the Gainward BLISS 7950GT Golden Sample graphics card today that may help them become noticed once again.

    早在数年前Gainward即以”Golden Sample”系列显卡在显卡版图市场上闯出名号。”Golden Sample”系列显卡更以其超频效能或其它独特的特性在显卡市场上一枝独秀。尽管近期并没有很多关于Gainward的消息，但MVKTech针对Gainward BLISS 7950GT Golden Sample graphics card所做的深入报导将再度使Gainward受到注目。

    "Gainward is a world leading producer of high-quality, high-end 3D accelerators for the personal computer market. Gainward offers a full product line of value adding products targeting gaming enthusiasts as well as entry-level consumers. NVIDIA''s venerable G71 chip has been going strong for a while now. It''s seen action as the GeForce 7900 GTX and coupled with a twin for some GX2 internal SLI loving, which was marketed as the fastest graphics card in town."

MVKTech在该篇深入报导中对Gainward评论到 ”Gainward以制造高质量、高价绘图加速器在个人计算机市场上居于世界级领导地位。该公司为游戏狂热份子及入门阶级消费者提供全线加值产品。”

For the most part, the specifications of the GeForce 7950 GT directly resemble those of the high-end GeForce 7900 GTX, but narrowed down slightly. So you can see the GeForce 7950 GT as a card to leverage the performance a bit higher then the previous GT version, but still a bit behind the GTX. The Gainward version with the Golden Sample suffix goes even further, as it is being released as a pre-overclocked version.

    Gainward released more then one version of the GeForce 7950 GT graphics card, which differs a bit from the reference design. Gainward first came with a BLISS 7950 GT 512MB design, actually a reference design but with a different cooling solution. It is clocked as the reference design set out by NVIDIA, so 450MHz core and 1400MHz memory speed. Quickly following that was the first Golden Sample edition, with has only 256MB memory but was clock at 580/1500MHz to outperform the competition. And yes to make it complete, Gainward finally released a 512MB version of the Golden Sample.

    Gainward推出了一系列GeForce 7950 GT 显卡，此款显卡略不同于Nvidia推出的GeForce 7950 GT参照设计版本。首先，Gainward推出BLISS 7950 GT 512MB设计版本，此款显卡实际上与参照设计版本相同，但使用了不同的散热技术，其核心频率与内存频率分别为450MHz 及1400MHz，与Nvidia推出的版本相同。紧接着BLISS 7950 GT 512MB版本，Gainward随即推出Golden Sample版本，虽然仅配备250MB内存容量，但其核心频率及内存频率分别超频为580MHz及1500MHz，在性能上远超过其竞争者。而为了使其Golden Sample版本显卡更趋完美，在众所期待下，Gainward终于推出512MB的Golden Sample版本显卡。

    Enhanced Performance & Overclocking

    高度提升的效能及超频技术

    When looking at the Gainward version of the GeForce 7950 GT implementation, and especially the Golden Sample edition we somehow got the feeling that this card is capable of more. The looks and design suspect that this Golden Sample has been designed to deliver stunning performance, but that some still have to be discovered.

    And that is exactly what we have done. First of all like most pre-overclocked versions, Gainward opted for a slight increase of the core voltage bringing it up to 1.35V steering the G71 chip. Most cards are currently shipped and set at only 1.25V which limits the overclocking potential. With the extra boost in voltage the G71 of the BLISS 7950 GT Golden Sample should able to catch up with the GeForce 7900 GTX by increasing the clock speeds.

    深入研究Gainward GeForce 7950 GT 的显示效能，特别针对其Golden Sample 版本，我们发现GeForce 7950 GT Golden Sample 版本的显示效能实际上具备更多的可能性。与其它超频前的版本相同，Gainward些许增加芯片的核心电压，而针对G71芯片，Gainward增加其核心电压至1.35V；值得一提的是，多数目前推出的显卡核心电压仅1.25V，这将限制显卡的超频潜力。而Gainward对BLISS 7950 GT Golden Sample 版本采用的G71芯片所增加的核心电压在超频后速度将赶上GeForce 7900 GTX。

    The Golden Sample is even more special as it features as we have shown Samsung 512MB GDDR3 memory rated at 1.2ns, or actually good for 1600MHz. This is quite a change as all other GeForce 7950 GT''s just come with 1.4ns, which means 1400MHz. With the extra voltage and the better memory, we just hit an awesome overclocking of 675/1800MHz. Compared to the stock speeds of the Golden Sample of 580/1500MHz this is quite an increase.　 What? Yeah indeed we got the

    Gainward card above and beyond the GeForce 7900 GTX settings. One note though, not every sample might be able to hit these speeds... But, before we forget to mention, this is with the stock cooling solution designed by Gainward. Well done Gainward, for the overclocking beyond our senses!　

    Golden Sample的特别之处在于其512MB、GDDR3、1600MHz内存速度的处理效能，与其它仅具备1400MHz内存速度的7950GT系列显卡相较，这是个很大的改变。靠着此张显卡增加的核心电压以及内存频率，我们的超频数字达到675/1800MHz，与Gainward订定的580/1500MHz相较之下是很大的突破。

    Final Thoughts

    测后感想

    Boasting higher performance in comparison with the GeForce 7950 GT, the Gainward BLISS 7950 GT Golden Sample graphics card has achieved a victory over its market opponents. There is no denying that this is a seriously fast, impressive graphics accelerator. While Gainward had been thinking out of the box when designing the Golden Sample edition of the GeForce 7950 GT, it does make it all worthwhile.
