cute looking card

This is a mess. They're STILL releasing 400 series cards...

jsfitz54 · Feb 1, 2011

Low end bus powered cards

There must be a need in the price arena they are aiming at, despite lack of pricing info.

Maybe the aim is government desktops or other large organizations.

I think the card looks good but would like to see a side by side with a 450

Red_Machine · Feb 1, 2011

My point is, nVidia should be spending all of their R&D time/money on the 500 series. This card should have been the GT 540, that would make more sense.

toastem2004 · Feb 1, 2011

I'm wondering what the ROP/TMU count is. The 430 was a lowly card for most things due to only 4 ROPS, the GT 240 was a better "gaming" and compute card. Could this be an overclocked 430 to get rid of stock? A compare to either the 430 or 240 would really help understand its place

ThomasK · Feb 1, 2011

GDDR5 @ 800 MHz? Does anyone actually make such slow chips?

meirb111 · Feb 1, 2011

this is realy bad the oem 440 is better 144 cuda cores this one has 96 only,
the same as 430 this card is a joke Texture Fill Rate 6.5 only the 430 has 11.2

HellZaQ · Feb 1, 2011

Nice card

looks like my Radeon x740xl...but performance is probably better
:laugh:

Ozpa · Feb 1, 2011

The color scheme and design is sexy as fu*k!

LAN_deRf_HA · Feb 1, 2011

Looks to be akin to a 9600 GS which honestly does pretty well with games. Even crysis at 720p, 1080p at a mix of medium and high. This is of course taking advantage of how crysis seems smoother at lower fps than other games...

cdawall · Feb 2, 2011

~~these should easily beat the 9600GS should be similar performance to the 8800GTS 320/640mb seeing how both have 96 shaders.~~

statement retracted looked at the reviews and ROP count

It'll make you think WTF
http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/ASUS/GeForce_GT_440/

Maybe nVidia should bring out the tag WTF and not just GS\GT\GTX\TI. Because that's what this card is.
