eVGA e-GeForce 9800 GTX | Cheap and Fast High End Gaming Graphics Card

Today’s we are looking at the Nvidia9800 GTX by eVGA. Taking a look at these graphic cards you might think that they’re a tad on the big size, but these sizes are now common amongst the high-end graphic cards. Some consider the 9800GTX to be on par with the 8800GTX. However, the greatest difference between the two cards is that the 8800GTX is equipped with 768MB of memory while the 9800 GTX has a memory of 512MB and both cards are DDR3. What makes the 9800GTX different is that the market price of the card being cheaper than the 8800GTX

Looking at the specification the 9800GTX is more superior in terms of its core, shader, memory clock speed and many others. A difference between the two would be at its memory bandwidth and memory interface. In this area, the 8800GTX succeeded the 9800GTX.

Some games were tested using the Geforce9800 GTX: F.E.A.R, Dark Messiah, Call of Duty 4, Bioshock, Oblivion and Crysis. At lower widescreen resolutions (1680×1050 and bellow), the Geforce 9800GTX outperformed the 8800GTX but with only a minor difference in terms of frame rate. However, when the resolution was cranked up to 2560×1600 and pushed the limit of the two graphic cards the 9800GTX started to choke and decrease in performance.

Our conclusion is that the two graphic cards are quite the same so if you already have a 8800GTX then it isn’t really worth upgrading just yet. But if your upgrading from a lesser card then it might be an idea to go for the eVGA e-GeForce 9800GTX because it’s one of the cheaper Geforce 9800GTX’s if you’re looking at a performance for price perspective.
