Gigabyte anticipates nVIDIA and presents their GT220
While ATI is busy launching their new DX11 cards, nVIDIA is still betting on their G216-300 series, new 40nm core cards but with DX10.1 support. Officially, the new 40nm GPUs from nVIDIA will be announced in a few weeks, but in the meantime, Gigabyte has already released the specifications of their own GT 220 online.
The card presented by Gigabyte has a 720Mhz core and 1GB DDR3 RAM, with the frequency of 1600Mhz and 128-bit interface. Also present are 48 Stream Processors with the shader featuring a 1568Mhz clock. These frequences are used on the OC version and in the future, overclocked versions will be launched.
The card also has DVI, D-Sub and HDMI outputs, and the cooling system is different from the reference model. In the next few weeks nVIDIA should make the launching official, and the cards will be available for the manufacturers first, then for the market.

The GT220 already has been available to OEM’s (Dell, HP…) for months. The coming release is for the consumer version, as evidenced by the retail box above.
It’s possible that the card will be hard to find, as the G216 40nm chip output is still an unknown.
Rumor has the GT220 selling for $60 US.

Good, so our source was perhaps a bit late. Nice to know, and thank you for pointing it out!
