XFX 9800GX2 Quad SLI Review

Posted on 2008-06-22 17:32:19 by Thomas De Maesschalck

So here we are today with the 9800GX2, Nvidia's flagship card(s). I say cards as although the GX2 is a single slot PCIe solution it is still two PCB's linked together rather than adapting to the ATI approach of putting both GPU's on a single PCB. This time however, Nvidia have wrapped them up in a sleek looking metal frame and rather than looking like the Star destroyer that was the 7950GX2, the 9800GX2 looks strikingly like the Monolith from "A Space Odyssey".

To evaluate the performance of Quad SLI we will be pitching the offerings from XFX against its arch rival the 3870X2 in Quad Fire (CrossfireX) which again is 4 GPU's linked together in a 2+2 format hence comparisons will be made throughout this review in an attempt to discover which solution is best for you.
