"Despite its recent troubles, NVIDIA has continued with its quest to populate its GeForce 9 series with tweaked versions of its GeForce 8 GPUs. We take a look at its new mainstream GPU, the GeForce 9500 GT and find out if it can distinguish itself from its predecessors. Also check out how the overclocked Zotac AMP! Edition fared.

... Of course, not all of this is news to enthusiasts. The GeForce 9800 GTX+ has been available for some time now in retail to combat the competition posed by ATI's Radeon HD 4850 against the now obsolete 9800 GTX. It uses a die shrunk G92 core of the 55nm process technology with slightly higher clock speeds. Meanwhile, the other new member of the GeForce 9800 series, the 9800 GT is a rebadged 8800 GT, with NVIDIA throwing in HybridPower support to align it with the rest of the GeForce 9800 series. Hence, the most interesting of the three 'new' GeForce 9 GPUs is the GeForce 9500 GT and we'll be looking closely at its performance today. "
