NVIDIA Announces the GeForce GTX 950 Graphics Card
NVIDIA announced the GeForce GTX 950, its latest entry-mainstream graphics card targeted at sub-$500 gaming PC builds that compete with game-consoles. The card is designed to offer sufficient pixel-crunching muscle for resolutions such as 1600 x 900 and 1920 x 1080 (moderate-high details). The GTX 950 succeeds the GTX 750 Ti, and is priced at US $159.99.
Based on the same 28 nm GM206 silicon as the GeForce GTX 960, the GTX 950 offers 768 CUDA cores based on the 2nd generation "Maxwell" architecture, 48 TMUs, 32 ROPs, and 2 GB of GDDR5 memory, across a 128-bit wide memory interface. Its core is clocked at 1024 MHz, with 1188 MHz GPU Boost, and 6.60 GHz (GDDR5-effective) memory. At its given specs, the card has a typical board power rating of just 90W, and makes do with a single 6-pin PCIe power connector.

The fan makes me laugh because of how tiny it is on this one. I want to see if this round we see some of those low profile versions or single slot cards!!!
However no more blower type low profile cards, not since 2010 and Palit GTS 450:
I hope this realm does get explored though!
make the fan larger and you are done
