NVIDIA plans to bring more DirectX 10 parts to market. After the G86 hits the mainstream there will be a place for an entry level card, based upon the G83 chipset. We also call this the low-end market and these cakes sell the best. This chip is scheduled for a summer introduction. It gets the GeForce 8300 brand and it is again an 80 nanometre chip. The faster one is called GeForce 8300 GT. It has 32 stream processors, one quarter of the GeForce 8800 GTX. It works at 500MHz and the memory works at 1200MHz. The card uses 128-bit memory controller. There will be two configurations one supporting 256MB while the second supports 128MB of memory. - The Inquirer

NVIDIA's DirectX 10, the GeForce 8300 starts at $69

Depending on the memory size, these cards will be priced between $89 and $99 George Washingtons. The slower card, the GeForce 8300 GS, is again an 80 nanometre card with 24 stream processors. Its funny that no one talks about fixed pipelines anymore. The core works at 500MHz while the memory clocks at 1000MHz. The GS card uses the same 128-bit memory interface and supports between 128MB and 256MB's of memory. It will end up priced between $69 and $79. It will run some DirectX 10 games but don't expect top performance from it. But certainly a very low price tag to move into the DirectX 10 technology.
