China : Nvidia's new home turf

Forerunner
In a bizarre move, Nvidia has debuted it's GeForce 7300GS series of cards in China, giving precedence over America & Europe.

This move only summarises the fact that the new world order has come to stay here. Company's are ready to have a out of box thinking when it comes to launching & selling their products. They are no more confined to only markets such as America & Europe.

By this move Nvidia is hoping to cash on the upcoming event of Chinese New Year, along with the fact that China has become the biggest channel market in the world.

Nvidia has said that it has shipped a six-figure quantity of G72, Geforce 7300 chips in China.

At the moment, GeForce 7300GS has only been paper launched in Europe and America.

GeForce 7300GS is a low-end 90 nanometre card, it has 4 pixel pipe, 3 vertex unit, has a respectable 550MHz core clock and 400MHz memory. The card is based on the 7-series GPUs, so all features from the family, barring SLI, should be present.

This is a low end GPU. It has turbo-cache, the ability to use system memory for GPU purposes. These cards are expected to come with 128 or 256mb memory. Comes with a 64-bit memory interface. The fastest ones will be capable of running 128-bit memory as well.

As with all current and last generation NVIDIA products there is full support for DirectX 9 and Shader Model 3.0. Home theater aficionados rejoice as the GeForce 7300GS will have full support for PureVideo technology.

At a $99 price point GeForce 7300GS is set to compete against ATI's X1300.

Just In :

After China it's India's turn to join the elite list of countries where nvidia launches GeForce 7300GS.

This signifies a radical new approach from nvidia which in the long term is only beneficial to company's marketing strategy. This shift in focus also points to the potential of countries like India and China who with just sheer numbers would help in selling the low end gpu in far larger numbers than nvidia would have imagined.

The XFX GeForce 7300GS comes with Purevideo support. With turbocache technology, it has full 512MB support with 1GB system memory. This card is also clocked at 550MHz, with dual 400MHz RAMDACs.

XFX 7300GS is available now including supporting 512MB DDR2 version, built with TV, DVI and VGA output low profile design and fit for barebone PC.

The new graphic card retails for around Rs 4,900.
