Nvidia announces GTX 950; aimed at League of Legends, Dota 2, and other MOBAs

Here we go, the latest and greatest from Shacknews...

Nvidia has announced a new graphics card today, the Nvidia GTX 950, that’s aimed towards the MOBA crowd as the company promises it would be a great graphics card for League of Legends, Dota 2, and Heroes of the Storm players.

The Nvidia GTX 950 is being priced at $160, which is positioned between the previous-gen GTX 750 and the GTX 960, and promises to reduce latency for MOBAs when used along with its GeForce Experience application. Nvidia is able to do this through the use of latency optimizations and a faster rendering process, which cuts down response time in Dota 2 from 80 milliseconds with the GTX 650 to 45 milliseconds with the GTX 950. A demo of this improvement can be seen in the video below.

If you consider yourself a hardcore MOBA player who wants to be able to have a few milliseconds upper hand over your enemies, and don’t want to break the bank, it looks like the GTX 950 may be the way to go. As for how the card will perform when playing games other than MOBAs, Nvidia says the GTX 950 is able to play the latest games, like Far Cry 4, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and Grand Theft Auto 5, at medium settings.
