A 128-bit version of Nvidia's GeForce 8400GS chip which was not in Nvidia's original roadmaps has recently been reported to have surfaced in the China market, according to sources at graphics card makers.

The 128-bit version GeForce 8400GS chip is very similar to Nvidia's GeForce 8500GT due to both graphics cores adopting the same G3-128 package, but the 8400GS's core frequency is lower, noted the sources. The original GeForce 8400GS adopts a G3-64 package, explained the sources.

Some graphics card makers think these 128-bit GeForce 8400GS could be GeForce 8500GT chips which did not pass testing and were downgraded to clear stocks. However, the makers think the chips still offer a good level of performance for their price.

Nvidia declined the opportunity to respond to this report.
