GeForce 9800GX2 will be EOLed in three months

NVIDIA is preparing two GT200 card, the single GPU 9900GTX and dual GPU 9900GX2. It seems one of the card will not only have a similar performance but also have the same production cost as GeForce 9800GX2, so NVIDIA is going to sentence 9800GX2 to death in June, 2008, according to our sources. It is quite a surprise that even the 8800GS can live longer than the just announced dual PCB GFX card.

Update: According to sources, 9900GX2 do not exist. We are sorry for the mistakes.

Yeah this was known about a week after the GX2 came out, doesn't surprise me either, as Nvidia's been taking the **** for nearly 2 years now, you should all be used to it.

Azza, has this got you thinking about getting rid of your 9800GTX by any chance?. Or are you happy with it for now?.

Nope.


No need at the moment, no game that I play needs any more graphics power.

Hmmm... I was really going to buy a 8800 GTX or a GT... think I won't. OCUK will get my money though, just for a Q6600 and more hard drive space I thinks.

I will then save up and get a 9900 series

Nice one . I just thought with you posting this thread that it might have disheartened you a little.

If it's doing the damage then I agree. Why change .
