Leadtek to deliver new, custom GeForce GTX 250

jmke · 16th September 2009, 08:19

Being an Nvidia-exclusive AIB, Leadtek doesn't have much to show off these days, especially in terms of DirectX 11-ready hardware, but that isn't stopping it from coming up with new cards, like the WinFast GTS 250 (V2). This yet another G92b-based card has 128 Processing Cores, a 256-bit memory interface, DirectX 10 and 2-way SLI support, two DVI outputs and a dual-slot cooler with three heatpipes and 26 aluminum fins.

The custom cooler doesn't make for a factory overclock though as Leadtek's card has its GPU, shaders and 512MB/1GB of memory set at 738, 1836 and 2200 MHz, thew stock GeForce GTS 250 (and GeForce 9800 GTX+) frequencies. The WinFast GTS 250 V2 is likely to hit stores in the next few weeks.

Bad time to introduce a new custom PCB for an already 2nd generation out of date card that sells for ~$100... especially with ATI launching new cards that will force the price even lower.

Then again this custom card is the shortest 9800/250 I've seen, looks like a low cost part if ignoring the cooler.
