Galaxy Readying Another GeForce 9600 GT Low Power Accelerator
Galaxy is readying another variant of the GeForce 9600 GT Low Power Edition. Prior to this, the company had launched the 9600 GT Low Power, Low Profile (LPLP edition), and the 9600 GT Green Edition. Unlike the two, the new variant uses a full-height PCB, and a cooler made by Cooler Master, that doesn't span into more than one expansion slot.
The card draws all its power from the PCI-Express slot, and uses a 2+1 phase power design. Under the cooler is a 55 nm G94 GPU, with clock speeds of 600/1625 MHz (core/shader). The 512 MB of 256-bit GDDR3 memory is passively cooled under the cooler's air-flow. It is clocked at 900 MHz (1800 MHz DDR). Output is care of DVI, D-Sub, and audio-relayed HDMI connectors. It's pricing and availability isn't disclosed yet.

Nice card, doesnt use any pci-e power and can potentially run on low power rigs.
Looks like i will be buying a Ati Radeon 4550 512MB GDDR3 Memory and a Galaxy Low profile 9600GT for my very first 2 pcie cards. Thank you galaxy.
LOW PROFILE ALL THE WAY BABY!
They already have a 9600 GT Low Profile.
This, is NOT Low Profile, rather just lower power consumption.
Anyways, thanks for telling me, peace
