Gigabyte Readies Three Mini-ITX Friendly Custom Designs of Upcoming Entry-Level NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1630 Graphics Card
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1630 is going to be an entry-level solution and could be a perfect fit for PC builders that are working on budget-tier Mini-ITX builds. Three variants of the card from Gigabyte have been listed over at EEC as discovered by Komachi. These include the:
GV-N1630OC-4GB GV-N1630OC-4GL GV-N1630D6-4GL
The first variant is most likely going to be a single-fan design with a dual-slot cooler and a Mini-ITX PCB while the latter two are low-profile variants with a d dual-slot and dual-fan cooler but in a half-height form factor. The top model will come in factory overclocked flavors while the low-profile will get both standard and factory overclocked models. It is likely that the factory overclock will be with-in the 75W TDP package. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1630 is expected to utilize a cut-down TU117 GPU with 512 CUDA cores, lower than the GeForce GTX 1650 model, which offers 896 cores. The card will also pack a 4 GB and 64-bit memory bus, a huge cut-down from the 128-bit bus that the TU117 GPU has at its disposal. News Source: Videocardz While we know the current date for the GTX 1630 GPU from NVIDIA, we don’t know the actual pricing or specific marketplace regions. The card is expected to launch in the coming weeks. It is safe to believe that NVIDIA might consider a $150 pricing for the new variant. Also, this would fit appropriately in that cost range considering the GTX 1650 already retails for $190.
