Gainward and Inno3D Geforce 9800GX2s sneak out
Gainward and Inno3D have shown off graphics cards based on Nvidia's upcoming Geforce 9800GX2.
The card was supposed to be kept a secret until 18th March, but since this is Nvidia's new high end model, manufacturers look keen to unveil their designs.
We're informed the 9800GX2 uses two 65nm G92 chips, like that used on Nvidia's 8800GT and 8800GTS graphics cards, sandwiched together like the 7950GX2. AMD's ATI Radeon HD 3870X2 is the target and if the past performance of two 8800GT and two 3870s is anything to go by, the 9800GX2 could well end up being the fastest card in existence.
They are huge cards:
Below, notice the HDMI port on the back of the Gainward card (also present on the Inno3D version), which will make gaming on a big TV easy:
