You also forgot to mention that it's the 2GB model, not the 1GB.

Great find Larry!! :)

I have a card with these exact same specs (GK208, 2GB VRAM, 14.4 GB/s bandwidth). Even though it is meant primarily for HTPC, it actually plays the entire Valve Library in Linux using the Nvidia proprietary driver at 1080p low. My CPU was Xeon X3323 (same core count, clocks and cache as Intel Q9300).

So while not a gamer card, it actually does surprisingly well if the user's expectations are low enough.

Speaking of GK208, it would be great to see the GT 720 have some good sales..

Maybe even to the point of rivaling my $19.99 AR GT 620 on price?

P.S. GT 720 is based on GK208, but with only half the CUDA cores enabled (192 vs 384). It does share the same 64 bit memory system as the GT 730 though. (Memory speed for GT 720 is typically DDR3 1600)
