There are a few new chips coming from Nvidia this summer and we managed to confirm that a mainstream and entry level Nvidia cards are among the plans.

We don’t want to bug you much with the new promised performance market king, the GD104 chip, as we mentioned this one a few times, but it’s quite interesting to get some basic details about the mainstream and low end chips from Nvidia.

The chip that sits in mainstream market is GF106 and this one should power the cards that should replace the already overused GTS250, G92-based cards. The cards based on the GF106 chip should have some 75W TDP power but this specification is not final at press time, so no guarantees there. 

The second chip that is coming from Nvidia is GF108 again a Fermi derived chip with much less shaders and other vital parts of the chip and this new chip should end up in a few entry level SKUs. It should feature support for GDDR3 and GDDR5 memory configurations and according to some early specs from the Far East, it should feature a 128-bit memory interface.

Both GF106 and GF108 should be ready for back to school, or should we say late summer time in the western hemisphere, but don't mind us for being skeptical about Nvidia’s schedules.
