NVIDIA also slipped out a GeForce GT 420 card for OEMs. This new Fermi-based low-profile graphics card features a 40nm chip and has 48 CUDA cores, a whopping 2GB of GDDR3 memory, 700MHz core, 1400MHz shaders, and 1800MHz memory. TDP is 50W.
Under the hood is a 40 nm graphics core (perhaps GF108), it has 48 CUDA cores, and connects to 2 GB of memory across a 128-bit wide DDR3 memory interface, with 28.8 GB/s of memory bandwidth. The core is clocked at 700 MHz, CUDA cores at 1400 MHz, and memory at 900 MHz (1800 MHz effective). Display outputs include DVI, HDMI (full-size), and a detachable D-Sub connector. The card has a maximum power draw of 50W. Later down the line, one can expect NVIDIA to make a consumer GeForce SKU with the same specifications.
