firingsquad: First Test 9800GTX+(G92b/55nm)

[Skratch]

So a 9800GTX+ is just a OCed 9800GTX, then why not OC the 4850 and compare them.

not exactly,the 9800gtx is a 65nm chip and the gtx+ is a 55nm chip.You can over clock the gtx+ further after you buy it,its not a super clocked 65nm chip.It should have decent headroom for more overclocking.

55nm>65nm

Although probable, that isn't certain nor proven.

Right!

The die shrink seems like it's not going to improve anything to maybe some 10W in power saving.

As is, my GTX clocks at 800 w/o any artifacts and the mem at 2400......so kinda not seeing the point in getting one of those GTX+, except for the market gimmick. Looks just like a competition for the rival's new upcoming card.

Oh well!
