You’d think those high-end graphics cards that NVIDIA sells would be big money makers because of how expensive they are, but it’s the fact that they’re expensive that keeps their sales numbers, and therefore the profits they bring in, very low. The real money is in the mid-range and low-end graphics cards, which is why the recently-leaked GTX 950 is such a big deal.
The battle for prominence in this generation of graphics cards from both of the big manufacturers has been an interesting one. While Nvidia has retained the performance crown, AMD certainly stole the show with its very different take on a contemporary graphics card, the liquid-cooled Fury X. However, while hearts and minds might be won with high-end hardware, the mid-range and economy class cards are the real money makers, so Nvidia’s GTX 950 is one of its most important releases this year. Although we don’t have anything in the way of official specifications, we do have some rumored ones that are said to have leaked . It is said to be based on the same GM206 silicon as the GTX 960, but will come with a quarter less CUDA cores enabled, which work out to 768.
