NVidia has released a new price-conscious Fermi card to the market today, a GeForce GTX460 SE, that packs in 288 CUDA Cores and 1GB GDDR5 memory into a $189 package.
GeForce GTX 460 SE is GF104 based,but the amount of SM(streaming multiprocessor)decrease from seven groups to six groups.It features only 288 CUDA Core,in order to make up for the loss of performance due to decreased CUDA Core,the graphics card will be with 1GB GDDR5 memory and memory interface of 256-bit.
It seems a bit odd at first to reduce the number of CUDA cores from the already low-ish 336 of the GTX460, but with the low price and overclocking-friendly nature of the card it could do quite well in the overclocking circles.
