Present day graphics cards are slowly moving from 512 MB towards a more generous 1GB total of video RAM. It’s the way things evolve, but not everyone thinks the say way. We see a bunch of GPU integrators that already offer 1GB graphics cards at a decent price. Take EVGA’s 8800GT 1GB edition, for example; it’s got one of the best price/performance ratios on the market. However, if you somehow feel that 1GB is not enough and you need more to match your system RAM, you'll be glad to know that Jetway is preparing 2GB versions of its 8800GT and 9600GT models. In order to accommodate the increased RAM capacity, both cards use a dual slot cooler that adds a series of minor design modifications to Nvidia's reference coolers.

Unfortunately, no GPU integrator, not even Jetway, is able to provide GDDR4 memories for the latest G9X GPUs. They might be following some strict directions from NVIDIA, presumably. Thus, Jetway’s new cards are using GDDR3 memory clocked at 1,800MHz and the 8800GT has its GPU clocked at 600MHz, while the 9600GT is clocked at 650MHz. If you compare the specs with a=other cards you’ll notice that there’s nothing special about clocks and features, save for those 2GB of RAM, which in 99 percent of the cases will be useless if you’re using these cards for games solely.

If you’re looking to buy one of these, you might want to wait a bit more as there is no info on price and availability for now.
