NX 7600GS -TD256E
NX7600GS T2D256E
Budget Nvidia 7600GS graphics card
It doesn't take a detective to work out that the graphics chip at the heart of the MSI NX7600GS T2D256EH is an Nvidia GeForce 7600GS, however it's not immediately apparent how the 7600GS differs from the 7600GT.
The answer is that the 7600GS chip only supports DDR2 memory instead of DDR3, which effectively limits the speed to less than an effective 1GHz. There's no point in running the core speed out of step with the memory, so while you'll typically find a 7600GT runs at 560MHz/1.4GHz, the reference speed for the 7600GS is 400MHz/800MHz.
Some manufacturers have pushed their 7600GS cards to the limit with figures of 550MHz/950MHz but MSI has followed the reference design to the letter so you're looking at a performance drop in the region of 40 percent compared to a 7600GT card. You can claw some of this deficit back as the card will stand a small overclock, but this isn't really a mid-range graphics card at a low price but instead is a fast budget card that sells for a realistic price.
Happy bidding
