Rating: - Great card even without SLI
Excellent graphics card. Since it has two GPUs inside, this is a great option for those who do not have an extra PCIe slot for SLI (like myself). Though if you can fit two of these you'd have a smokin PC. Just make sure you have enough room (this card is huge) and a Power Supply with enough power (needs minimum 600W for one).

I purchased 3 of these cards from another vendor to build 3 identical new systems. One of the cards failed out of the box. One was perfect and the other shows signs of having an issue. Returned the bad one and ordered a replacement from Amazon.
The card is a brick! Use screws to secure it, do not rely on plastic holders in your case.
Spec-wise this is a great card but the replacement card I ordered from Amazon had the same issue(s) as the one I returned to the original vendor. ... Read More

The Video card is so cooollll. It has 1 GB GDDR 3 memory, even it has two powerful GPU cores. It runs so quietly and it's the perfect solution for your desktop computer. Try it !

hey,
the other guys review does not make sense but even though you buy this card compatability and hdmi is a big thing, the 8800s in sli are good but they heat up and the frames arent perfect. at some point these cards will be $450 with a tri sli patch so people can have better gaming experience.
buy one now and you wont have to buy it later. its worth the buy i promise.m going to upload a video about it eventually

Hmmmmm
nVidia has a very aggressive product schedule recently and creates many confusion. To simplify, let me do a formula presentation.
1. 9800GX2 = 2 8800GTS which not equals to Next Generation Technology
2. 9800GX2 < 8800GTS 512mb SLi (slower)
3. 9800GX2 $$ > TWO 8800GTS 512mb $$ (more expensive)
1. Whether it's a new generation technology might not be an issue for most people as long as it could dominate the current graphic card competition. Several ... Read More
