Wow the 9800GX2 really stands out in this review. The second GPU in the 9800GX2 seems to be quite efficient and im sure it will improve as new drivers come out. Lets hope the the 9800GT and the 9800GTX are cheaper then the HD3870X2 and then Nvidia will thrash ATi.

As usual, ATI just can't pull out when the AA is on. Good find. Mate.

Premature drivers anyone?

but seriously nice find, probably alittle BS and the drivers have to be a bit of tweaking (like any) before perfect.

There's no reason for current G92 8800 owners, nor 3870 owners, to bother with any of the 9 series, unless they're running a motherboard that doesn't allow for SLi.

Only 14k 3DMark06 points with a 9800GX2? Isn't that a bit low?!
