Delayed by quite a bit, the GeForce 9500 GT, Nvidia's sub-$100 9 series offer has now started shipping to OEMs with consumers set to get it from July 29. Featuring DirectX 10.0 support, 32 Stream Processors and a 128-bit memory interface, the GeForce 9500 GT is divided in quite a few versions - with either GDDR2 and GDDR3 memory and either 65nm or 55nm GPUs.

The 55nm GPU-equipped cards will be those shipping to retail and will have the same specs as the 65nm D9M-loaded models. The GDDR2 GeForce 9500 GT will have a 550 MHz-clocked core, a shader frequency of 1400 MHz and 512MB of memory at 500 MHz while the GDDR3-flavored models, will have the same GPU and shader clocks but will come with either 256 or 512MB of on-board memory set to 800 MHz.

In addition to the GeForce 9500 GT, the low-end market will also see the release of the 9400 GT but this one is expected at a later date.
