The Geforce 9600 GSO is a budget video card from Nvidia's GeForce 9 Series. The 9600 GSO is nearly identical to the GeForce 8800 GS. Like the 8800 GS, the standard configuration of the 9600 GSO features 96 stream processors, a 550 MHz core clock with shaders clocked at 1375 MHz, and 384MB memory clocked at 1,600 MHz on a 192-bit memory bus. However, this GeForce 9 Series card does differ from the older 8800 GS thanks to Nvidia giving card manufacturers more freedom when it comes to determining their own clock speeds. A total of 384MB of GDDR3 memory comes standard, while 512MB and 768MB editions can also be found.
