The NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT graphics card is expected to be the last California-based model using the G92 graphics core. It was first mentioned shortly after the release of the GeForce 9800 GTX, but there have been no offers on the market until now. The first graphics cards are only now starting to appear in retail – a mention of the Gigabyte-made GeForce 9800 GT appeared on the website of the German store grafikkartenpower.de. The model with the index GV-N98TZL-512H will operate at frequencies of 600/1500/1800 MHz for the core, shader processor block, and memory, respectively. NVIDIA needs to get rid of its G92 stock, so the GeForce 9800 GT will likely be sold at bargain prices. The graphics card on the German website is listed for 5000 rubles (in converted currency, of course). Hard drive manufacturers have increased the capacity of 2.5-inch models to 500 GB, but all existing models currently use three 167 GB platters. In this context, Toshiba's new announcement looks very attractive – the company has increased the capacity of a single 2.5-inch platter to 200 GB. Their new 400 GB mobile hard drive will use only two of these, which will reduce power consumption and increase reliability. On the other hand, the platters can be used to create a 600 GB mobile hard drive. Let's see how Toshiba will use its developments. The first information about the Bloomfield (Nehalem) desktop processors, which Intel is preparing to release in the fourth quarter of this year, has appeared on the Internet. If the rumors are true, three quad-core models with frequencies of 2.66 GHz, 2.93 GHz, 3.2 GHz, and 8 MB of L3 cache will be released. The cheapest model will be sold for $284, the middle one for $562, and the most powerful one for $999. The high prices are due to the fact that Intel does not need to compete with AMD – the Phenom line is not yet a major threat to the new 45-nanometer Nehalem. Prices are unlikely to change before the end of the year. Along with the processor, those who want it will have to buy a new motherboard with a Socket 1366 connector, DDR3 standard memory (most likely), a cooling system, and so on.
