As many people know the original 9600GSO was based on the G92 core but with 96 stream processors and a 192bit memory access. Nvidia decided to replace the 9600GSO with a new version which had 48 stream processors but with a 256bit memory access based on the G96 core. The newer version costs around the same as the HD4670.

The card tested is a low power version which has slightly lower clocks than normal.

For £50 the card does look reasonable:
