i have XFX GeForce 9800GT graphics card that does not require a power connector. I ran GPU-Z but it shows me
GPU clock = 580 mhz
memory clock = 700 mhz
shader clock = 1450 mhz
shader = 96
bus width = 128-bit

but website shows that are higher then these, bus width = 256-bit etc.
why is that so? :(
 
Do you have the EXACT model number of your card? (should be on the box, or on a decal on the card) XFX I'm sure made more than one 9800GT. Most card makers do! Different versions can have different amounts of memory, different clock speeds, etc.

Also, you really need to fix the title of your thread. That URL for a title is NOT going to get you many responses. ;)

Go to the XFX website here, and scroll down. You'll see NUMEROUS variations of the XFX 9800GT each having their own unique model number.

Their OverView page shows a 128-bit floating point, where as their Specifications page says 256-bit Memory Bandwidth. Is this what you're confusing?
