Nvidia Corp., a leading supplier of discrete graphics processing units, this week announced its new GeForce 200M-series graphics chips aimed at mobile computers. The new processors are made using 40nm process technology and support DirectX 10.1 functionality, a feature-set which importance Nvidia has always downplayed.
The new GPUs are numbered up to the GTS 260M, which is a GT200 derivative with 96 shaders, and are manufactured at 40nm. GDDR5 will also be compatible with the new chips, being dedicated for the faster GTS 250M and GTS 260M chips.
It's surprising to actually see a lower end card with a higher SM 4.1 compliance than the GTX 280M, which was based on the G92 core, but it was due - AMD has supported it for more than a year.
