GeForce 9800 GX2 -1GB Frame Buffer, Two PCBs, two 65nm GPUs total, 256 Stream Processors Total

The chaps over at HardOCP have posted the first pics and specs of the GeForce 9800 GX2,  If two GeForce 8800 GPUs on a dual PCB, single video card doesn't make your heart flutter, the fact that these will most likely support quad-SLI surely will!

The best way to think of the GeForce 9800 GX2 card is as an 8800 GPU that has been die shrunk to 65nm and placed in an SLI configuration in a "single" card. The 9800 GX2 is very reminiscent of 7950 GX2 of days past. (And we loved the 7950 GX2 at launch, but terrible support and diminishing returns soon painted it as one of NVIDIA's biggest failures since the 5800 series.) The GeForce 9800 GX2 will launch in late February or early March as it now stands and will replace the 8800 Ultra (single GPU) card in NVIDIA's high-end product line up. The 9800 GX2 is said to be at least 30% faster than a 8800 Ultra.
