GeForce 9800 GTX Close-Up Pictures
There are not many details on this unfortunately, but WE.PCINLIFE seems to have acquired a number of close-up images of NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce 9800 GTX, which will be the company's first high-end single GPU 9 series graphics card. There are 18 pictures in all, with some of the better shots shown below.

everyone knows that.
Other than that, it looks like an 8800GTX without that small chip on the left side.

This card will oc better than the 8800GTS 512MB, if you voltmod... The long PCB is to accomodate the 6 phases (2 memory, 4 core :eek:)
A 8800GTS 512MB will be far cheaper and provide almost the same performance, so this card isnt really a worthwhile purchase. If you know no limits however with trying to set a record...
I would expect at LEAST the 8800GTS 320/640MB cooler... if its a 8800GTX cooler however... lol.
It definitely has a better power setup than the 8800GTS 512, so it should clock higher, especially if they use 0.8ns RAM, and they should considering the stock clock speed of the RAM is 1100MHz.
The odd thing however, is that in the specs leaked earlier, the only way to get the correct Texture Fillrate was to disable 8 texture units on the GPU. Meaning that the 8800GTS 512 might be the only G92 card to not use a cut down core. However, will the few less texture units really hurt performance? It still has 54, the old 8800GTX/Ultra only had 32.
SLi is just a way to make people think their penis is bigger because they have more cards.
G92GTS too is read as if it had 56 TMUs while it actually has 64.
TNT2, TNT2 Pro, TNT2 Ultra or Geforce 256, Geforce 2 Pro, Geforce 2 Ti, Geforc2 MX or Geforce 6800XT, 6800Le, 6800, 6800GS, 6800GT, 6800Ultra or even 7900GS, 7900GT, 7900GTX
I'd get the card for that. Who wants to voltmod the crap out of the card?
