I just finished reading that article, but I am a bit skeptical. Basically the article states that the new 9800 gx2 graphics cards (which are scheduled to come out on the 11th) will be faster than the 3870 x2 video cards. I know that nvidia's high end hardware has typically been better than ATI's high end items, but how could the 9800 gx2 be faster? The gpu's on those were made using the 65nm process. I heard that the ATI gpu's were made using a 55nm process. So how could the 9800 gx2 outdo the 3870 x2? Is there something that I forgot to look at?
