9800GTX $199

Good deal at the zoom.

This isn't 9800GTX+.... just an overclocked 9800GTX.

The 9800GTX+ is based on G92b (55nm), whereas this will have lower clocks and is based on 65nm G92. This is still a good deal though.

The 9800GTX+ isn't supposed to be out until July.

Great to see the 4850 bringing Nvidia's pricing back down to reality. Just bought my GTS about 2 months ago and now it feels so "obslete"

Yeah yeah I knew all that. I forgot to edit the content from the video forum post.

ZZF had the ASUS non O/C 9800GTX for $165 after $30 MIR and "in the cart" $35 discount
OOS for now

How does the new 4850 compare to this 9800GTX?

The thing about these top of the line cards of any generation is that they are so power hungry these days...But this price makes it comparable to the 4850s on Newegg.

The 4850s are slightly better according to Anandtech's review

 

[Delerious]

Looks like the 4850 is the win.

it is funny i have seen multiple benchmarks on multiple sites and every single time the 9800gtx outperforms the 4850 by atleast a couple frames and upwards of 10+ in some games. I think they are just about equal if not the nvidia may be slightly better

sorry double post
