The leaked slides of the NVIDIA Geforce GTX 960 are originating from the foregin media Videocardz.com. Which you can consider the last result or affirmed details of the upcoming most anticipated Graphics card offering Maxwell Gm206 Core. The new card will definitely engross the Overclockers as clocks approaching 1.5Ghz.
Nvidia Geforce GTX 960 Slides Revealed – 1024 CUDA Cores, 128 Bit Bus and 2GB of GDDR5 Memory
So it seems like NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 is going to make its debut on January 22nd Event as now the slides has also been leaked. The specifications on the below chart, we can say it is 100 percent confirmed (reference version). Specifications are pretty much matching with the previous several leaks. The best finding about the mid-level Graphics card from the Green camp is the Core clock speed of 1127mhz which will bring about a horrifying execution out of the box. Furthermore, for Overclockers they can overclock it till 1.5GHz that’s why NVIDIA set the uncommon tag ‘Overclocker’s Dream’. Reference version features a DVI-I, HDMI 2.0 and three DisplayPort 1.2. Its proper operation is required to connect the 6-pin power plug and power consumption is 120 W. Here we have a comparison specifications chart of NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 with kepler GTX 760 and Maxwell GM204 based GTX 970.

*There is a 192-bit version of the card as well.
For the greater part of the players the unrivaled thing will move their steps to the retrogressive side is the 2Gb VRAM and tiny bus width of 128 bits won’t permit it to be a win even at sensible resolutions, for example, 1440p. Furthermore, after accounting for Maxwell’s innovative color compression technologies. Without those, I am certain it would not have possessed the capacity to hit 1080p appropriately either. Likewise, when you contrast it with NVIDIA GTX 760 kepler, NVIDIA Geforce GTX 960 will beat it in 1080p determination, however, when you go to the wide territory implies big resolutions than GTX 760 will lead the pack.
