It has been a while since Nvidia announced its first venture into the world of 40nm GPUs with its mobile parts, and today we can finally see the desktop parts made on the same manufacturing process, the Geforce G210 and GT 220. Both of them are OEM products and feature a low profile PCB design.

The G210 works at 589MHz for the GPU, 1402MHz for shaders and 500MHz for 512MB of DDR2 memory. It features 16 stream processors, a 64-bit memory interface and supports DirectX 10.1, something that Nvidia marked as irrelevant not so long ago.

The GT 220 is a bit more serious and features 48 stream processors, a 128-bit memory interface and 1GB of GDDR3 memory. It works at a higher 615MHz clock for the core, 1335MHz for shaders and 1580MHz for memory. Same as the G210, the G220 has DVI, HDMI and D-Sub outputs and features active cooling.

Both of these cards should start popping up in various systems pretty soon, while the consumer oriented parts will have to wait a while. You can check out the G210 here while the GT 220 can be found here.
