Take 2, a company in South Africa, has Chaintech’s GeForce 9600GT for sale on their website for about $275USD. For those of you that don’t believe it, there is a screenshot of their store.
We wrote about the NVIDIA APX 2500 a couple days ago, and Vincent managed to capture hands-on demo of the new mobile graphics chip in action. The APX 2500 is a low-power video chip that is capable of delivering 720p video.

Its such a short time away, but as ATI already announced their dual core DX10 capable card, NVIDIA had to make a move. They have, they are releasing their twin 9800 card at the beginning of next month.
NVIDIA’s latest addition to the mobile graphics market doesn’t offer up much new in terms of hardware performance its 8000M series brethren. In fact, hardware wise the 9500M GS and 9300M G are exactly the same as the 8600M GT and 8400M GS, respectively.
This new system has a 750MHz ARM11 processor that can run through 720p video like it was nothing. There is also an ultra-low power GeForce core in there that handles the media such as encoding and decoding the 720p video and up to 12MP pics.
You may not have heard of the PhysX chip before, but if you own one of the current-gen gaming consoles, you’ve used it. As you would likely guess from its name, the chip processes all of the physics-related events in your favorite games. PhysX is owned by Ageia and works in conjunction with the [...]
I am not going to bag on Alienware too much, but I have seen some of their desktop computers, and they aren’t too terribly attractive, in fact, the only desktop I’ve ever seen in person that looked good was the Blackbird 02, but much like both of those computers, this desktop from China has the [...]
With this new chipset you’ll see the C73 northbridge and the MCP55 southbridge chipset. As far as what that means, it means the motherboard will be able to support up to a 1600MHz front side bus.
This means that this single graphics card is more powerful than the Cray-1. ATI and AMD both seem to have problems playing catch-up with their competitors, but generally when they land one; it’s a good amount ahead of the curve of their competitors.
Once again nVidia has claimed the most powerful mobile graphics solution title by combining a pair of super fast 8800M GTX GPUs. I don’t think there is a single game out now that this duo can’t display at max resolution with a more than decent frame rate.
