Nvidia 9800GTX++++

Ya so I was just reading up on info over the last few days and I figured I'd share with everyone some of the things I've been finding on the new 9800GTX+ if you guys have not noticed, I seem a little exited about this release.. you say why. because this is what the original 9 series release should have been. We were expecting good things from 9 series, didn't get it. and this now will be what we wanted.. for half the Price.

Original 9800GTX is now $199 at some places. and others it's getting there. thats Nvidia's said price for it. That will also probably drop once ATI drops the price on there 4850, then I'm assuming Nvidia will do the same..

The 9800GTX has a 65nm Process Core and a core clock at 675Mhz stock.
The 9800GTX+ is a 55nm Process Core, and it's core clock is stock at 738Mhz.. Witch is pretty decent. not to mention that it's more than just an OC'd version of the original. cuz if it was, then the new + would not have much OC headroom. but it does.. I've read more than one review of sites that got a test model and got them up to 840MHz (Effectively)..

So 9800GTX++++ = FTW!

Here's a Link of some of that info I've found. so you guys can see the results and the OC info for yourselves.

Bjorn3d.com -NVIDIA 9800 GTX+ The plus means better!, Satisfying Your Daily Tech Cravings Since 1996

I'm not a NV fanboy, I'm just a consumer wanting the best product for the best price.. and this new WAR we have going on here is great. becuase in the end we are going to have some great mid-high cards at a great price. In the end, the consumer win.!!!

Just thought I'd post some info and a link on this card.. for everyone to view. Please post any and all comments about it and other cards.

I'm still just a sitting here on my "Leather Executive Chair" waiting for a few more weeks for this war to get better, and lower prices.. Then I'll be making my Choice on what I'll get.

Re: Nvidia 9800GTX++++

Unless there is a startling discovery / price reduction on the GT2xx cards, I am probably going to add one of those by Christmas time.
