I recently got a GTX 260 and I believed that it was the 192 shader version and according to the evga website it should have 192, but according to GPU-Z and RivaTuner my card has 216 sp. Does anyone know if this is some sort of glitch in the way these programs detect the shader count or if somehow I got lucky?

Here is my card on the evga site, I checked the product number twice:

From what I've heard about the bottleneck my cpu is currently causing, benchmarks would probably be the same as if I had the 192 and less than others with the 192, but it's nice for the future I guess.

I just noticed an additional odd thing about this card. GPU-Z says that its memory clock is 999mhz when it is supposed to be 1998mhz and all the 216s are this speed too so if i got sent a 216 this is still odd. wtf is going on

No 999mhz is the real speed. 1998 is effective speed.

thanks for the clarification

idk still the serial number directly on the card is the 192 one, I guess this will just stay a mystery
