Geforce 9800 GX2 will beat 3870 X2 newzhunter Jan 31st, 08, 06:29 PM #1 (permalink)
Upcoming Geforce 9800 GX2 will launch in weeks to come and it will beat Radeon HD 3870 X2 performance. At the same time it will end up more expensive, and probably will be fewer of Nvidia’s than ATI’s card. Nvidia partners are concerned about RMA and thermal dissipation of Geforce 9800 GX2 but at the same time they cannot do much about it as Nvidia will provide cards with coolers.

Well it would be weird if Geforce 9800 GX2 wouldn't beat HD3870 X2, I mean 8800 GT SLI is enough for that. 8800 GT SLI wouldn't be too bad with it's power consumption.

Well everyone knows that Fuad without source is worthless. I mean I could open news site where I gues things and would post them as news

Current single 8800GTS 512 already beat the 3870. No see why the 9800GX2 cant.

Jea but, 880GTS cost ~100-150$ more than 3870 and gives only 20% better perfonrmance

Ya, but 20% improvement is not easy. Every cents count. Money well spent.

When they beat ATi in image quality, then it's quite a thing to boast about. Anyway, shouldn't they be competing against the R700?
A blade cuts both ways. So why take the risk? Stab instead.
