Come ampiamente preannunciato, NVIDIA ha scelto il palcoscenico offerto dalla manifestazione CES 2009 di Las Vegas per lanciare ufficialmente le soluzioni grafiche consumer-oriented siglate GeForce GTX 295 e GeForce GTX 285.

In accordo al produttore, la GeForce GTX 295 è una video card dual-gpu - basata su due chip grafici della linea NVIDIA GeForce GTX 200 - le cui prestazioni sono superiori all'attuale flag-ship tra le dual-gpu di ATI/AMD ovvero la Radeon HD 4870 X2.

La GeForce GTX 285 è invece un controller grafico a processore singolo; anche in questo caso il chip maker californiano afferma che questa è la scheda grafica consumer a gpu singola più veloce al mondo. Il gap con la concorrenza è stimato intorno al 30%.

La GeForce GTX 295 è già disponibile mediante le implementazioni dei maggiori partner di NVIDIA; il suo MSRP è apri a $499. La GeForce GTX 285 sarà invece disponibile a partire dal 15 Gennaio con un MSRP pari a $399.
