puntoMX Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 The expected price: around $449 US. Expected announcement date: February 14, 2008.Good, price drops for the 8800 series, wonder what the price range of the 9600GT is going to be .

ripken204 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 ya i saw that, really dont care... it's way to big and i have no idea why they are even calling it a 9800 when it isnt even a g100, it's a g92! this card should be an 8800GX2, just like what they did with the 7800GX2. i want to see the realy 9800's released already.

ripken204 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 dont you just hate it when amd/ati cant compete we get nothing new..if the whole 9x000 series is G92 then i wonder why nvidia created all of that naming confusion with the 8800gts's that are G92 like mine..

ripken204 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 ya i remember those stupid numbers. all it did was cause problem in my opinion. all these people freaking out b/c they bought a comp with and athlon 2000 which doesnt run at 2Ghz, lol.

PC_LOAD_LETTER Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 yeah i didnt have a huge problem with it until they stared using the same # for different CPUs I had a 3200+ that ran at 2.0 and had 1mb L1 but there was also a 3200+ that ran at 2.2 with 512 L1 -any that was in the 64 market -there was another 3200+ in the 32bit line too i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbolt 2864 Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 I heard these are going to be the specs for the 9800 GTX: * Codename: G100/D9E * 55nm process * ~1800 million transistors * 650MHz core clock * 2000MHz shader clock * 1024MB 2000MHz 512-bit GDDR3 (128GB/s) * 32 render output units * 96 texture filtering units * 384 shader processorsIsn't the GX2 meant to be faster or what?

ajy0903 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 A question about this graphic card.Do you think this graphic card works on the Intel Chipset based motherboard or not?Cause my motherboard is Intel Chipset based motherboard and it has Crossfire support, not SLI.
