After introduction of 9500GT, Nvidia plans to release a Geforce 8400GS replacement. It is not a brainier, the new card will simply be branded as Geforce 9400.

Some pieces of the specs look rather interesting, as this card will come with core clocked to healthy 700MHz while the DDR2 memory will work at 550MHz.

The most interesting part is that the memory uses 128-bit interface, which is a great step forward from 64-bit that you find with 8400GS. The new card will have twice the bandwidth of its predecessor and you can expect some significant performance increase.

A 700MHz clock is also a great achievement for a low-end card, and 55nm makes a real difference. It should launch shortly.
