The rumor mill is is spinning hard at expreview today, as it seems NVIDIA will debut it's Geforce 9 series on valentine’s day, 2008. According to sources the first product of Geforce 9 series will be GeForce 9600 GT.
9600GT’s GPU is a 65nm processing chip. We already seem this fabrication process used on on G92/D8P (8800 GT / GTS 512MB) . The nex-gen mid-range product GPU should have core clocks at 500MHz with it's memory at 2000MHz. The GPU will have 64 Shader Processors (a 8800GS will be 96SP 192bit 384MB). It is a main-stream product and only have one SLI connector so it can not support 3-Way SLI.
GeForce 9600 GT uses a P545 PCB design and the memory will be 256-bit 512MB.
Judging from these early specs it's a pretty save bet to say that the product’s proformance will be lower than the 8800GT, and likely even its rival Radeon HD 3850/3870.

New GeForce 8800 GTS 512
NVIDIA’s G80 GPU has been sitting atop the 3D graphics food chain for well over a year now. It was way back in November of ’06 that the GeForce 8800 GTX and original 640MB GTS arrived – the first two graphics cards based on the G80 GPU. Sometime later, the more affordable 320MB GeForce 8800 GTS and current flagship GeForce 8800 Ultra arrived, but these two cards are based on the same GPU that powers NVIDIA’s initial 8800-series offerings.
Obviously, even though NVIDIA’s products still clearly outperform ATI’s at the high-end, it’s time for a refresh, if just to keep things exciting for consumers this holiday season. The first glimpse of what NVIDIA had in store came a little over a month ago in the form of the GeForce 8800 GT. The GeForce 8800 GT was based on a brand new GPU, internally codenamed the G92. G80 and G92 are fundamentally very similar, but NVIDIA hadn’t unleashed the full potential of the GPU due to the odd number of stream processor partitions enabled in the GT - seven.
And today, NVIDIA is launching yet another addition to the GeForce 8800 series, a new GTS card featuring 512MB of frame buffer memory and a G92 at its heart, with get this, 128 stream processors. There was an eighth stream processor partition lurking within the G92 all along...
