First Overclocked GeForce 9800 GX2s!

The fact that NVIDIA's GeForce 9800 GX2 seems to be the most powerful video card available for gamers at this time doesn't mean it's going to make everyone happy. I know people who consider benchmark results more important than gaming experience, and exactly those may be the first customers for the first factory overclocked 9800 GX2, coming from the notorious EVGA!

EVGA 980 GX2 SSC

In fact, there is more than just one GeForce 9800 GX2 model that comes pre-overclocked from EVGA, and the pricing is extremely intresting. Just keep in mind that the standard 9800 GX2 has a GPU clocked at 600MHz, unified shader processors running at 1500MHz, and memory with a frequency of 2000MHz, and is priced at $599. Now, let's see what can you get for only a few dollars more...

- EVGA e-GeForce 9800 GX2 1GB SC (SuperClocked): GPU : 625MHz, unified shader processors : 1562MHz, memory : 2000MHz, model: 01G-P3-E892-AR, price: $599.

- EVGA e-GeForce 9800 GX2 1GB KO (Knock-Out): GPU : 650MHz, unified shader processors : 1620MHz, memory : 2050MHz, model: 01G-P3-E895-AR, price: $609.

- EVGA e-GeForce 9800 GX2 1GB SSC (SuperSuperClocked): GPU : 675MHz, unified shader processors : 1674MHz, memory : 2100MHz, model: 01G-P3-E897-AR, price: $619.

- EVGA e-GeForce 9800 GX2 1GB BlackPearl: GPU : 675MHz, unified shader processors : 1674MHz, memory : 2100MHz, model: 01G-P3-E897-WR, price: unknown.

Only $20 extra for a solid overclock and same generous warranty? Now, that's what I call "serious hardware manufacturer!" Congratulations, EVGA, and I hardly wait to see first benchmarks of these new monsters!
