Update: SP number changed and PCB/Memory design confirmed, sorry for the mistakes we make earlier. All the updated info will be hi lighted.

NVIDIA will debut Geforce 9 series on valentine’s day, 2008. According to source inside NVIDIA, the first product of Geforce 9 series will be GeForce 9600 GT, aka D9P.

9600GT’s GPU is a 65nm processing chip. We already seem this tech on G92/D8P and G98/D8M. G80 and G86 have been EOLed, and G84 will also be EOL when the valentine’s day comes.

Source also tells some specs of the nex-gen GPU D9P. The core clocks at 500MHz while memory at 2000MHz, GPU will have 64SP. It is a main-stream product and only have one SLI connector so it can not support 3-Way SLI.

We just confirm that GeForce 9600 GT uses P545 PCB design (not 8800GT’s P393 PCB design), and the memory will be 256bit 512MB, still don’t know support DX10.1 or not .

Different from NVIDIA’s “hi-end unveils first” strategy, this time GeForce 9600 GT will be the first product of 9series. We are sure the product’s proformance will lower than 8800GT, and its rival will be Radeon HD 3850 and the upcoming RV635.

that dissapoints me, now im gonna have to wait even longer till the next high end....
oh well
 
Regardless, nice memory bandwidth though -- 64 GB/s. With just 64 SPs, that may be overkill, considering the 8800 GTs have less memory bandwidth than that.
 
awesomeness

this might just be the card for me somewhere next year, when my 8800GTS320 goes to my litle brother, low power, should be priced attractively and quite sufficient performance for the occasional game here and there

yes i know im downgrading, but since i hardly game anymore, my lil bro will be getting the 8800 once he graduates from high school
 
Looks like the 9600GT will not quite be the card for me. I will wait a little while longer for the higher end 9 series card (9800gts?/9800gtx?) in April! :)
