Out of curiousity, what is deceiving about the name? Gainward always ships
there cards set at the lowest clock settings. Thats why they have there
utility with it to enable max clock settings for the card.

I searched for a FX5900 Ultra card on pricewatch and ran into the
following Gainward card labeled as follows: Gainward Ultra/760 GeForce
FX5600 128MB 8X Retail. I bought the card and as I waited for it, searched
online to try and determine its clock/memory speeds. I found nothing.
The card arrived and scored poorly on 3DMarks. It came with a utility
that allowed for overclocking. The utility showed the untouched card as
having a core/memory speed of 300/400. 3DMarks showed it at being 57/100.
So, not only does Gainward market their card with a deceiving name, but
they
also artificially inlflate the specs on the card. That's probably why I
couldn't find any specs on their site.
I sent the card back and I am buying a Chainteck FX5600 Ultra card.
All
I can say is stay away from Gainward! I will never buy another one of
their
products.
