NVIDIA Might Be Readying GeForce GTX 950 Ti and GeForce GTX 950 Graphics Cards - Based on GM206 GPU

After a successful launch of their high-finish products, NVIDIA is planning to return to the sub-$150 US market with new entry level cards. From a report published by Videocardz, it seems like NVIDIA might exist preparing non one but ii GM206 GPU based cards under the GeForce GTX 950 and GeForce GTX 950 Ti branding for users who don't desire to spend more $199 US on graphics cards.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950 Ti and GeForce GTX 950 Under Works

It has been a long time since NVIDIA concluding touched the sub $150 US marketplace. The previous ii cards that were launched by NVIDIA, the GeForce GTX 750 Ti and GeForce GTX 750 were as well the first cards to feature Maxwell GPU architecture. These graphics cards were launched a twelvemonth dorsum and laid down the foundation of the current graphics cards that feature the GM200, GM204 and GM206 GPU cores. Both cards characteristic a power efficient graphics architecture which fabricated new feats in the efficiency department and has been the core feature of the entire Maxwell lineup.

NVIDIA has worked long on enhancing the Maxwell GPU architecture in its second revision, the first revision we saw on GTX 750 Ti and GTX 750 (GM107) didn't feature about of the technologies introduced on GM20* graphic cards but this is going to alter with the upcoming GeForce GTX 950 Ti and GeForce GTX 950 which use the GM206 GPU that incorporates new technologies such as enhanced core performance, retentiveness compression to name a few.

According to the source, information technology seems like NVIDIA has finished development of their new GM206-250 GPU core. Now we know that NVIDIA already has one GM206 core (GM206-300-A1) featured on the GeForce GTX 960 while the GM206-250 sounds like a cut-down core. On GM107, we saw ii SKUs, the GM107-400 and GM107-300 for the GeForce GTX 750 TI and GeForce GTX 750, respectively. I believe that there might be ii cutting-downwardly variants of the GM206 GPU or both new cards will characteristic the same cadre just the 950 (Not-Ti) will come up with lower clock speeds. With ane SMM disabled, nosotros get 896 cores and two disabled SMMs requite 768 cores. In that location'south a possibility that NVIDIA only disables only two SMMs, leaving the residuum of the vi intact for full functionality of the chip. The retentiveness interface and enshroud would remain intact with the carte boasting a 128-fleck bus and a 2GB GDDR5 VRAM. We can expect the TDP to be under 100W while the GM107 featured a TDP of just 64W which was quite impressive.

The prices can be like to the previous MSRPs of $119 US for the GeForce GTX 950 and $149 US for the GTX 950 Ti. We know that the competitors of these cards would the Tobago based Radeon R7 360 which retails at $109 US while the Radeon R7 370 will be competing against the GeForce GTX 950 Ti since both cards volition accept a $149 Usa price unless NVIDIA tries to steal the thunder abroad from AMD by reducing pricing further similar they are doing with their high-cease Maxwell cards. The GM206 GPU will be competitive in terms of operation per watt against these cards if the performance figures are right. Await more details in the upcoming month.
