Not bad, I was waiting for this to happen. So now an SSC 98GX2 is like having 2 stock 98GTX cards in SLI. Hopefully we will see more overclocked options from other manufacturers. Imagine what the specs a Palit non-reference designed OCed card would be! :eek: I am glad I waited before jumping on this card. Time for the comptetition to step up their game. :toast:

Looks like a nice card.. They got the memory bandwidth wrong in those slides though.

The GX2 has attracted my attention from the start. I'm still a bit skeptical though. Should i go for the 9800GX2 SSC or should i wait for the 9900GX2?
