NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950 Specifications Surface
Here are possible specifications of NVIDIA's upcoming entry-mainstream graphics card, the GeForce GTX 950. It was earlier rumored to be named the "GTX 950 Ti." NVIDIA is designing this to succeed the GTX 750 Ti, and to compete with the Radeon R7 370. It will be based on the GM206 silicon, the same one that drives the GTX 960, but with a quarter of its CUDA cores disabled. This puts the CUDA core count of the GTX 950 at 768, and its TMU count at 48. Its ROP count will remain at 32, memory bus width at 128-bit, and it will ship with 2 GB of GDDR5 memory.
The GeForce GTX 950 will likely ship with clock speeds ranging between 1150 to 1250 MHz core, 1350 to 1450 MHz GPU Boost, and around 6.60 to 6.75 GHz memory, with its memory bandwidth set around 107.68 GB/s. The reference card will draw power from a single 8-pin PCIe power connector, and its typical board power is rated at just 90W. The card will likely feature 2-way SLI support, and its display outputs will include a combination of dual-link DVI, HDMI 2.0, and DisplayPort 1.2 connectors. NVIDIA is expected to launch the GeForce GTX 950 on 17th August, 2015.

Good budget card if priced well ;)
Anyway, i'm looking forward to see benchmarks of this card. Maybe i'll switch from the integrated graphics i use now. But the price has to be right. In my part of Europe the 960 is $250, the 950 has to land at $150 for me to start considering a purchase. But I don't think retailers are going to allow a $100 gap. Maybe the new electronics trade agreement will help...
This GTX 950 could be very interesting if it hits the market at the right price. I'm thinking somewhere in the ~$150 range.
That could be a killer card for someone who just wants an entry level desktop card for 4K work (ie no gaming). This could be one of the cheapest solutions that will do 4K at 60Hz via HDMI 2.0.
