has received information about the specifications of NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce G210 and GT 220 desktop graphics cards, these are 40nm models with DirectX 10.1 support. The launch of these models is slated for October. Here are the basic specifications of each model:
G210 is GT218/D10M1 based using P690 and P691 PCB designs supporting DDR3 and DDR2 respectively. G210 has 24 shader processors clocked at 600MHz core and 1425MHz shader. G210 runs on 64-bit memory interface with 512MB DDR2/3 memories clocked at 800MHz. These cards will be priced very cheaply between US$30-35 replacing the current GeForce 9400 series.
GT 220 is GT215-300/D10M2 based and there will be 3 variants; P681 (DDR3), P682 (DDR2) and P680 (GDDR3). GT 220 has 48 shader processors clocked at 625MHz core and 1375MHz shader. It has 1GB memories onboard on 128-bit memory interface clocked at 800MHz. These cards are going to cost somewhere between US$55-60 and is going to outperform GeForce 9500 GT by much.
