FINAL RESULT

COMMENT - "Although the MSI GeForce 9800 GT is a fast video card offering some very advanced features I was left with the impression that I had seen it all before. Both the MSI GeForce 9800 GT and XFX GeForce 8800 GT use the G92 GPU and the only difference is that the MSI GeForce 9800 GT is clocked slightly higher. The MSI GeForce 9800 GT runs 10% faster at 660Mhz and the memory runs 6% faster at 1900Mhz when compared to the XFX GeForce 8800 GT. Just going by the game benchmark performances it is clear that the MSI GeForce 9800 GT is only 10% faster than the XFX GeForce 8800 GT which makes the GeForce 9800 GT nothing more than a slightly faster GeForce 8800 GT!"
MSI GEFORCE 9800 GT SCORES 7/10!
