NVIDIA has just unveiled three new graphics processing units (GPUs), the GeForce 9800GTX+, 9800GT, and 9500GT, all of which support NVIDIA’s PhysX and CUDA technologies.

“SANTA CLARA, CA—JULY 29, 2008—NVIDIA® Corporation, the world leader in visual computing technologies, today announced the immediate availability of three new desktop GeForce® 9 Series graphics processing units (GPUs) that bring support for NVIDIA PhysX™ technology and CUDA™ general-purpose parallel computing to mainstream PC computing markets.

The new GeForce 9800 GTX+, 9800 GT, and the 9500 GT GPUs deliver exceptional graphics quality, performance, and application compatibility, along with support for NVIDIA SLI® technology, the industry’s leading multi-GPU solution for gaming and enthusiast platforms across a wide variety of price points, including under $100 USD.”

By now, everyone should be familiar with the GeForce 9800GTX+. The 9500GT is an entry-level card which will come in both DDR2 and DDR3 versions, and be priced in the $70-90 range. The 9800GT will cause quite a bit of confusion because it will be manufactured in both 65nm and 55nm, and both versions will have the same stock clocks.
