It has some major compatibility problems with chipsets atm. For example Intel X48 + 9800GX2 doesn't work. (WTF! )

Really bad AA problems too. I think I'll just wait for the next card after this.

In term of raw performance, the 9800GX2 > HD3870 X2

If the recent price speculations are correct, then this card is a joke. Why would one spend so much when sli boards cost nothing, and you can pick
up a pair of 8800GTs for $360?

Oh well, more money in my pocket.

I'll just buy a second 8800GTS G92 and beat the crap out of the 98xx series.

No SLI for me. I'm not about to give up my Intel chipset mobo for one of those crappy half-ass NV based boards.

Gaming was a NO NO with Intel chipset.

Nvidia’s Q2 2008 refresh is dual chip

Improved G92 times two

Nvidia will also have a refresh of its Geforce 9800 GX2 series and these cards will get a faster iteration of the same marchitecture.

We previously reported about GT200 and it looks that the next generation Nvidia is an improved version of its well-known G92, D8P chip. The thing we cannot confirm or deny is alleged 512-bit memory controller but we are certain that the new chip has more than billion transistors. G92 has 754 and making a chip 25 percent bigger shouldn't be an issue.

We suspect that the current 9800 GX2 might drop in price to make the space for the new ultra high-end card, and make them coexist. We simply cannot see Nvidia killing the current GX2 after three months life cycle but you have to bear in mind that Nvidia was late with this dual card but the GT200 remained on its original Q2 2008 schedule.

With the same analogy, the new single card solution might be a GTX / GT / GTS look alike card with one of these chips behind a cooler.
