"Nvidia has unveiled its newest GeForce 9800M and 9700M GPUs for notebooks. The advantages of a GeForce 9M-series GPU not only apply to just games. Software developers are also harnessing the architectural advantages of GPUs to speed up processing in commonly used, non-game applications and tasks like converting digital video for a portable video player and high-resolution photo editing, claimed Nvidia.

Five versions of the new GPUs are available: the GeForce 9800M GTX, GeForce 9800M GTS, GeForce 9800 GT, GeForce 9700M GTS and GeForce 9700M GT. These join the existing GeForce 9600M and 9500M GPUs for mid-range and mainstream notebooks. The GPUs feature 112 processing cores and support SLI multi-GPU configurations and Hybrid SLI technology.

The new GeForce 9800M and GeForce 9700M-series GPUs will be available from over 20 notebook vendors worldwide. In addition to Toshiba, other first-tier makers are expected to announce notebooks featuring the new GPUs in the coming months, said Nvidia. Gaming notebooks have also been announced from regional PC companies such as Sager, Pioneer Computers Australia, Zepto, Rock, Novatech, XXODD, Chiligreen, Multirama, Plaisio, Ergo, Cioce, Insys, Infinity, Cybersystem, and Cizmo."
