NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX Scores 14K in 3DMark06
After taking some screenshots with a special version of our GPU-Z utility, the guys over at Expreview have decided to take their GeForce 9800 GTX sample and give it a try at Futuremark 3DMark06. Using Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9650 @ 3GHz, 2GB of DDR2 memory, ASUS Maximus Formula X38 and a single GeForce 9800 GTX @ 675/1688/1100MHz the result is 14014 marks.

Maybe the gtx will have outstanding o/c abilities.
... perhaps not, but that result still seems quite pathetic. Indeed you could just get a 8800 GTS and juice it up to the same level. :shadedshu
I think we can all agree the 9800GTX isn't exactly the card we were expecting. But saying that nVidia is beat because of a single card is kind of a big leap. Especially when that single card still outperforms the offerings of ATi.
high end is gonna be multiple gpus and multiple cards.. two or three x 2 cards red or green..

Dont get me wrong.....I am not suggesting this is fake, am just a little suspicious based on what I can see..........until someone more knowledgable than me in this field comes up with a sensible solution of what I am missing and then of course my mind will be at rest :confused:
