According to a Softpedia.com news update this 259.47 driver – not yet available from Nvidia’s own site – lists more than the usual GeForce cards including the GTX 400 series.
Apparently, the new driver will work with GeForce GTS 450/455 video boards, GT 440/430/420 models and a whole slew of GT 400M series.
The one card from the list that has been detailed by previous rumors is the GTS 450 and will supposedly have 1GB GDDR5, an interface of 128 bits, 192 CUDA cores and clocks of 783 MHz for the GPU and 3,608 MHz for the memory.
Still, the list includes many names besides just this one and goes as follows.
NVIDIA_DEV.0E23.01 (NVIDIA GeForce GTS 455)
NVIDIA_DEV.0DC4.01 (NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450)
