And that OC model has a faster core and memory frequency. Hey, it’s another few percent more performance for the same amount of money.”

The 9800 GX2 is only about 17% faster than the 8800 Ultra when using AA and AF but it’s about 30% faster when using less extreme settings. It also has the ability to turn one of the cards off to save power but the control aspect of the feature is still a work in progress.
