9800gtx or 9800gtx+

Ravenas · Aug 27, 2008

Simple question:

Is the 9800 GTX+ worth the extra price? I've only seen gains of around 300 3dmarks when the two are compared.

The benefit is the shrinked die, leading to lower temps. They overclock very similar.

Agree with above, not to mention the + has better OCing potenial, no real reason for the 9800GTX unless you can find one cheap.

With careful looking at Tiger the 9800gtx+ Is also only $179

9800GTX+

I don't care for mail in rebates. I like instant savings.

there is not too much different between 9800gtx and 8800gts 512 , and 8800gtx more cheaper , and i see in most overclock thread's the 8800gts go higher than 9800gtx and the 8800gts have more range with overclock , and sure is is less heat than 9800gtx
