As some may or may not know, NVIDIA just released the entry-level GeForce GT 430 graphics card and it seems that its partners are hot on its heels, with PNY Technologies having also delivered a customized model known as the Veto GeForce GT 430.

The GeForce GT 430 video card that just came out is NVIDIA's first low-end Fermi card with DirectX 11 capabilities.

Basically, it is the sibling to the enthusiast-grade GTX 480/470 and the mainstream GTX 460 and GTS 450.

It is powered by the GF108 graphics processing unit which is constructed on the 40nm manufacturing process technology.

Of course, it did not take long for the Santa Clara, California-based company's partners to start showing off their own models.

Now, PNY technologies has taken the word and brought forth the Verto GeForce GT 430, which has the GPU paired with 1 GB of DDR3 VRAM and 96 CUDA cores.

The chip has a frequency of 700 MHz, whereas the shaders and memory operate at 1,400 MHz and 1,600 MHz, respectively.

Of course, the newcomer has full support for PhysX and CUDA and comes with a dual-link DVI port, a HDMI output and support for OpenGL 4.0.

Other elements deserving of mention are the memory bandwidth of 25.8 GB/s and the texture fill rate of 5.6 billion/s.

"The GT 430 is an ideal addition to any system, offering advanced performance and visualization," said Nicholas Mauro, senior marketing manager, PC components for PNY.

"Consumers can reinvent their PC with the GT 430 for impressive HD video quality, fast and easy editing, and mainstream gaming -- all for under $100," Mauro added.

The exact price of the Verto GeForce GT 430 is $89.99, which should allow it to compete with the models that its rivals have or will soon bring forth form their own labs.
