BFG GeForce 9800 GTX 512MB DDR3, PCI-E 2.0
Strengths: m upgrading from SLi 7800GTX's to a pair of 9800GTX+. 3dMark06 went from 8300 to 13300 on just one card and about 15000 with SLi. I feel I have a bottle neck with my Core2Duo 2.4ghz O'Ced to 3.15ghz, it seems a Wolfdale may be the next purchase.
Weakness: hese cards compared to the 7800GTX's I was running are much larger. I had to recable my power supply and move drives around in my Antec 900 case to get it to fit properly.
These fans run about 53% of listed speed with capability of over reving to 153%. You will have increased noise but shoot I use Zalman 5.1 headphones(I can't hear a bomb go off in the house) but man does it run cooler.
