MSI GeForce 9800 GX2 specs and photo
It seems that MSI has been goofing up (well they have the reputation for it) by releasing photo's and details on NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce 9800 GX2, this is NVIDIA's top-of-the-line to-be, so it's never too early to start nerding out.
The best way to think of the GeForce 9800 GX2 is a 8800 that's been shrunk down to 65nm and SLI'd onto a "single" card. The card is supposed to be at least 30% faster than a 8800 Ultra, and will apparently support Quad SLI. The details over at MSI show the product with 1GB of GDDR3 memory, MSI's GeForce 9800 GX2 should get a GPU core clock of 660 MHz, the Shaders domain at 1650 MHz and memory at a beefy 2400 MHz.
Well, next week is CeBIT, we'll know the specifics soon. For now, here's the photo.

If the card performs like it is supposed to it shouldn't be to bad but from all the problems I have heard of from the 7950GX2 I wonder wether this card will be plagued with the same problems and failures.

8800gt FTW!!!!!

9800gx2 sounds crazy, and just a gimmick to get people to buy it. The 9 Series is ALL a gimmick.

Damnit ATi, get some competition happening.

Nvidia won't do anything until you start lighting a fire under there asses (metaphorically or literally I don't care which), then we will see good graphics cards released.
