Nvidia launches the GF 9800 GT and GTX+

In addition to the official arrival of the GeForce 9500 GT (already found for several days now in Europe), yesterday was the date also chosen by Nvidia for the launch of the GeForce 9800 GT and GTX+.

The first is based on a G92(b) with 112 activated scalar processors and frequencies of 600/1500/900 MHz for the GPU, shader core and memory, respectively. Therefore, these are strictly identical to those of the GeForce 8800 GT 512 MB. Otherwise, the new card mainly sets itself apart with HybridPower support.

While the GeForce 9800 GTX+ is also equipped with a G92b and has HybridPower, there are 128 scalar processors with GPU frequencies of 738/1836 MHz or a 9% increase compared to the 9800 GTX "v1". Note that memory remains unchanged at 1100 MHz.

You may recall that in June Nvidia already authorized the publication of a preview of this card following the arrival of the Radeon HD 4850 on the market.
