Asus offers GeForce GTX 950-2G without a 6-pin power plug

Asus offers GeForce GTX 950-2G without a 6-pin power plug

The GTX 950 is an entry-level to mainstream graphics card in the Maxwell range of GPUs from Nvidia that sits pretty nicely in the 1080P domain. ASUS offers a GeForce GTX 950-2G without a 6-pin power plug. 


The GeForce GTX 950 is a cut-down version of the GM206 GPU that Nvidia uses in their GTX 960 series. This revised chip has a lower number of shader processors, a 128-bit wide memory bus and thus 2 GB of GDDR5 memory.

  • Exclusive World of Warships invite code for free: Diana Cruiser and 15-day Premium Account (worth USD11).*game codes redemption starts from 7/31/2015 to 1/30/2017. Please stay tuned on http://www.asus.com/event for details.
  • Perfectly matched with ASUS Z170 motherboards for optimized style and performance.
  • Dual fan design provides 2X greater air flow and 3X quieter performance.
  • Auto-Extreme Technology with Super Alloy Power II delivers premium quality and best reliability.
  • GPU Tweak II with Xsplit Gamecaster provides intuitive performance tweaking and lets you stream your gameplay instantly.

The product has been castrated and stripped of everything that is sexy with the GTX 960/970/980. For the 'normal' models you have been able to see the memory cut down to 2 GB of memory on these puppies, that memory runs on a 128-bit wide bus, the shader processors have been cut-down to 768 Shader/Stream/Cuda cores. 

Asus states the card has a board power of 75W and doesn't need a six-pin PCIe power connector.

What's the hurry? You eager to upgrade those 2k€ Titans?


They are just around the corner, wich means we will have X80 Pascal cards before end of year.

Wasn't one of the 750 series cards that didn't have a power connector as well?

Its just as well that that this version of the 950 would perform below the standard 950 since its a low powered version of the card which means not as OC capable as the 6 pin powered version.
