NVIDIA has updated the GeForce 9 series roadmap and with it we can see not only the addition of the GeForce 9500 series, but also that GeForce 9800GX2 remains set for March 11. We’ve also found out that the highly anticipated GeForce 9800GT is slated for April 3. Before that, GeForce 9800GTX should arrive at the end of March. All GeForce 9 launches are scattered throughout Spring, and later in May, GeForce 9600GS will appear. GeForce 9500GT will surface in June, while the 9500GS should arrive one month after that.
