Although leaked in some notebooks earlier, Nvidia has now officially announced its new Maxwell mobile GPUs, the GM107 based Geforce GTX 960M and the Geforce GTX 950M.

According to announced specifications, both the GTX 960M and the GTX 950M appear to be based on a 28nm GM107 Maxwell GPU, the same one behind the GTX 750 Ti desktop graphics card. Both pack 640 CUDA cores, 128-bit memory interface and will include some Nvidia exclusive features like the Battery Boost, GPU Boost 2.0, Optimus and Adaptive VSync.

The GTX 960M will end up working at 1096MHz base GPU clock while the GTX 950M works at 914MHz GPU base clock. While both support Nvidia GPU Boost 2.0, unfortunately, Nvidia did not reveal any details regarding the maximum GPU Boost so we guess this will depend on the actual notebook. The GTX 960M will end up paired with GDDR5 memory clocked at 2500MHz while the GTX 950M will be available with both GDDR5 and DDR3 memory clocked at 2500MHz and 1000MHz, respectively.

According to Nvidia, this is not a paper launch and these GPUs will be available immediately in notebooks from well known manufacturers like ASUS, Alienware, HP, Acer, Lenovo and we have already seen both MSI and Razer announced their own notebooks with GTX 960M GPUs.

Nvidia has also listed both the GT 940M and the GT 930M GPUs on its website but currently there are no information regarding specifications so we guess that we will see those at a later date.
