NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT, 9800 GT/GTX to get greener BIOS

Posted on Friday, October 10 2008 @ 0:03 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

Expreview received word that NVIDIA is working on a BIOS update that will cut power consumption on its GeForce 9500 GT, GeForce 9800 GT and GeForce 9800 GTX graphics cards.

If you have tried 9500GT, you may notice the card has a 2D/3D clock, when idle the core clock can be as low as 216MHz. But the memory frequency and shader keeps unchanged. Maybe this time NV can fix this small problem.
