We first covered the launch of the new NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX+ on June 20, 2008. Launched right after the GT 200 series of graphics cards, the GeForce 9800 GTX+ is die-shrinked version of the venerable NVIDIA G92 GPU, used in cards like the GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB and the GeForce 8800 GT.

Thanks to the die-shrink from 65 nm to 55 nm, NVIDIA was able to further boost the core and shader clock speeds of the GPU by 9.3%. Everything else was unchanged, including the memory clock which remained at 1.1 GHz. Hence, NVIDIA called it the GeForce 9800 GTX+ (Plus), instead of the GeForce 9900 GTX.

How well does the GeForce 9800 GTX+ overclock? We set off to answer that question today by finding the limit of our card and running a number of benchmarks to see just how well it does. Our original review showed that the GeForce 9800 GTX+ was 10.4% faster than the Radeon HD 4850, so any gains should be money in the bank. Read on to see how NVIDIA's first 55nm GPU overclocks on the GeForce 9800 GTX+ video card!

The NVIDIA G92 GPU is a phenomenal GPU because it's a fast and power-efficient GPU. Even after NVIDIA officially launched their new GT 200 series of graphics cards, they still managed to squeeze a little more out of the G92. Today, NVIDIA officially launched the last member of their GeForce 9 family - the NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX+ (Plus).

As we saw it our review of the NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX+, the card is really just a minor improvement of the GeForce 9800 GTX. Other than the use of the smaller and cooler version of the G92 GPU, the GeForce 9800 GTX+ has a slightly higher core clock speed. Its GDDR3 memory clock speed remained at 1.1 GHz. Hence, the minor addition of a + (plus) to its name, instead of a full number change.

Nvidia is replacing its top of the line flagship part with the new 9800 GX2, a dual GPU single card to match AMD's 3870 X2.

NVIDIA launched the 9800GX2 today in a move that brings its own next-generation dual-GPU product to the front and center. ATI may have stolen a lead with its 3870X2 launch earlier this year, but NVIDIA seems determined to make up the ground.Read More...

NVIDIA just launched the GeForce 9800 GX2 video card with a pair of 600MHz G92 GPUs, 256 stream processors running at 1.5GHz and 1GB GDDR3 memory operating at 2GHz. We have a couple XFX GeForce 9800 GX2 cards on hand and the performance numbers are very impressive. Read on to see how the GeForce 9800 GX2 does against a number of other video cards!

The battle between ATI and NVIDIA reached a tense moment today when ATI removed the gag order on the ATI Radeon HD 4850 graphics card by more than a week. NVIDIA was trying to spoil the launch of the ATI Radeon HD 4850 by launching an ultra secret graphics card called the GeForce 9800 GTX+! Read on as we benchmark the Radeon HD 4850 versus the GeForce 9800 GTX+!

NVIDIA quietly die-shrunk its G92 GPU last week, just 12 hours before AMD's launch of the Radeon HD 4870 we've got a preview of the GeForce 9800 GTX+. Despite NVIDIA's efforts, the best card at $199 continues to be the Radeon HD 4850....
