XFX GeForce 9600 GT 1-GB 256-bit DDR3 DirectX 10 Graphics Card (96 W) Graphics Processing Unit for desktop market segment makes use of Unified Shader architecture, and was launched in February 2008. The GPU is manufactured on 65 nm technology. The card’s processor and graphics clock speeds are 1.625 GHz and 650 MHz respectively. Furthermore, it has 64 CUDA cores, 32 texture units, and 16 ROPs. The GeForce 9600 GT (96 W) embeds 1 GB of GDDR3 memory, using 256 bit interface. The memory is clocked at 900 MHz, which translates to 57.6 GB/s memory bandwidth. The GPU supports PCI Express 2.0 interface, and requires a single slot on the motherboard. The maximum power consumption of this model is 96 Watt. Game and 3D graphics performance of the NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT (96 W) can be improved if it is paired with a similar graphics card.
More detailed specifications of the GPU are available below.
