Just the leaked reviews thus far. Will likely score a bit better than G92 GTS, besting G80 in most situations. Hi-res and bandwidtch intensive apps are the big question. Will ~2200 memory matter with 256-bit bottleneck..


Ooh, this makes post number one thousand for me

Ask MSI

How would two 9800GTX's in SLi compare to a HD 3870 X2 and a HD 3870 in Crossfire ?

9800gtx in sli (and tri-sli) vs 3870x2 in CF

Some games gtx in 2x sli wins, but most games the x2 in cf wins.

edit: fixed link

I really wish they would stop that . I remember seeing an MSI with a big two slot cooling solution (including a transparent red acrylic shroud) and staring at it in confusion before realizing it was a 9600GT, not an HD3870.
