3870 X2 lose to 9800GX2 yeah !!~~ maybe cheaper then RV680 also  whistling.gif

CES 2008: Faster chips
We said this back in 2007 but let us be clear on one thing. Nvidia's upcoming high end sandwich board, Geforce 9800 GX2 is going to end up faster than a single Radeon 3870 GX2.

This comes as no surprise as Nvidia's single G92 is faster than a single RV670 and in the same matter a dual chip Nvidia beats ATI.

Radeon 3870 X2 will be very competition as its single chip brother was but it is still a bit slower compared to Nvidia. We still believe hat Radeon 3870 X2 will have quite good sales as it will be significantly cooler than Nvidia's card and it will be available in massive numbers

It's onli a prediction only, no proper review or comparison wink.gif . The design of NVidia's sandwich board with G92 core will onli pack more heat icon_rolleyes.gif .

from my experience YES flex.gif NVIDIA is just an faster FPS whore card which is how they can gain more FPS because they render less graphical details unlike ATI laugh.gif

Imagine 8800GT G92 Core already facing cooling problem, then wut happen if 9800GX2 G92 dual core sandwich?? I think gonna be as hot as wasabi sandwich wink.gif , faster frame rates doesn't wins all but endurance like long hours gaming flex.gif .

thanks
it's 3.27 now.  doh.gif

so 449 x 3.27 = 1468

add another rm200 for etc charges should be around RM1.6k here.  brows.gif
if this is real, it will be a nice card in terms of performance per price ratio.

Make it RM1699 for the early birds icon_idea.gif, buying 3.30 u won't get 3.27 exact.
