Video cards are launching left and right these days and it's been a confusing time for many consumers. Trying to tell people that many of the latest GeForce 8 series cards have the same core as the GeForce 9 series isn't an easy thing to do.

When it comes to just raw gaming performance the GeForce 9800 GTX is more of an evolutionary advancement than revolutionary.
