As expected NVIDIA unleashed its two new high-end GPUs at CES, the dual-GPU sandwich GeForce GTX 295 and single-GPU GeForce GTX 285. Both sports the new 55nm G200b GPU that enables lower power consumption and higher clock frequencies, which is also shown in the specifications. The cards are targeting the extreme enthusiasts, but NVIDIA has managed to keep the prices surprisingly low, although still the most expensive cards around after AMD cut the price of Radeon HD 4870X2.
