The 9800GTX has been tested early over at TweakTown. They did not test it compared to any 8800GTS 512, but it is basically the same thing. People were complaining that the 9800GTX is the 8800GTS 512 with 2 power connectors and an extra SLI connection for Tri-sli. Anyway lets get down to business. The 9800GTX was able to sometimes compete on par with is buddy, 9800GX2, and faster than the 8800GT by a fair margin. The 9800GTX is going to stop the production of the 8800GTS 512, but it is still not the card that people were expecting to be 3 times faster than the 8800GTX. Read more over at:
