What's Hot

Good performance for the asking price, supports three-way SLI for x3 processing power

What's Not

Does not represent a huge leap from previous generation, outperformed by ATI's rival twin-GPU HD3870 X2, no DirectX 10.1

The Final Word

When judged on its own merits, the Gigabyte GeForce 9800 GTX (GV-NX98X512H-B) is a hard card to fault. However, the emergence of similarly priced dual-GPU cards has taken some of the shine off its performance.
