Reviews of the eVGA e-GeForce 9800GTX+ Superclocked - graphics adapter - GF 9800 GTX+ - 512 MB
-
CNET Review
The Good: Just barely faster than the competing card from ATI; more power-efficient at idle than its competition.
The Bad: Double-wide card takes up more expansion room.
The Bottom Line: EVGA's GeForce GTX 9800+ Superclocked edition has basically the same price-performance benefit as its Radeon HD 4850-based graphics card competition. With identical bang-for-the-buck, you'll like this card if you demand power efficiency, but you should turn to ATI's card if your PC has limited upgrade room.

Part number: 512-P3-N874-AR
