Why It Mattered

GeForce 8800 Ultra belongs to the Tesla and GeForce 8 Series era around 2007, when PC graphics cards varied heavily by bus, memory chips, BIOS, cooler, and display outputs. Tracking the exact model helps retro builders distinguish period-correct boards from similarly named variants.
