Geforce 7950 GTX 2 retail Quad SLI cards available end of April

April 13th 2006 | Graphics Cards

We learned that Nvidia plans to ship its shorter versions of the Quad SLI capable cards for retail. It will brand those cards as Geforce 7950 GTX 2 and the cards should be available by the end of the month.

The new ones, meant for retail only are branded as Geforce 7950 GTX 2. We remember that Nvidia used this 50 suffix with its Geforce FX chips and had cards such as Geforce 5950 and 5750 but this suffix actually meant that the card is bridged to PCIe, as the cards without suffix, Geforce FX 5900 was AGP only.
