Nvidia Maxwell GM206 Pictured

Nvidia's GTX 960 is set to arrive later this month, with some stating that Nvidia's NDA is January 15th. Sadly Nvidia's Press Conference at CES revealed no details on any of Nvidia's Upcoming GPUs, so for now we will have to settle with what is floating around in rumortown.

Nvidia's GTX 960 will use a different Maxwell GPU core than the GTX 980 and GTX 970, this core is called GM206. The initial models of the GTX 960 is rumoured to have between 1024 and 1280 CUDA cores, judging from it's compared die size to GM204 used in the GTX 980 (please look at the pictures below).

The reference model of the GTX 960 is also rumored to have a 128-bit memory bus and have 2GB of DDR5 memory, with 4GB variants to come soon after launch.

Given the current popularity of Nvidia's GTX 970, the GTX 960 is looking to be a very interesting GPU. Lets hope that it will be as well received as the existing Maxwell lineup.
