Guru3D had a peek around for an exotic model GeForce 9600 GT. They said: “We ended up with Sparkle and get this; they ask only 99 EUR for their passively cooled product with 512MB GDDR3 memory.

Hilbert Hagedoorn writes “…..It was known for a while already that AMD’s ATI is developing a new product under codename R700. Guru3D has a nice preview of what AMD is going to launch real soon, the Dual-GPU based Radeon 48×0 X2 series of products.
