A Blast From The Past: Meet The ASUS Extreme N6800GT-DUAL/2DT/512M
Apr 13, 2012
I can't even remember why I was digging around in these boxes but it sure was worth it. Like finding an old box buried in the back of the garage, discovering an old card gets my geek organ wagging in nostalgia. Normally, as a responsible company, ASUS vacuums up all the old kit for recycling to make space for the next generation, so the sad truth is that items like this rarely survive. After recently chatting to a 10 year veteran of ASUS, he claims the Extreme N6800GT-DUAL/2DT/512M (to give it its official name) never made it into real production, but evidently its seeds laid root to products like the MARS and ARES we know today, which is why we're doing this little retrospective.
