The graphic card battle is getting more and more intense right now. We have been told that NVIDIA will upgrade the GeForce GTX 260 in mid September, offering an extra TPC inside the G200 GPU.

The original GTX 260 have 8 TPCs (Texture Processing Cluster) totally, but the new GTX 260 have 9 TPCs. That means the numbers of shader processor have been increased from 192 to 216. In G200 chip, one TPC contains 24 shader processors.
