ZOTAC 9800GT 512MB - $49.99 AMIR - ends mid day today 5/28

hmm...hmmmm..I think I'll need my thinking pipe to decide if I want this.
 
Great deal, but Zotac will not send you a rebate check unless you email or call asking about it.

I can't find any reviews/benchmarks for that one. POV made one for the OEM market and no go there for reviews either.

I wonder if it's any faster than a GT 240 GDDR5 in games vs pure shader performance (which might make it better as a PhysX card as suggested above). The GT 240 GDDR5 has over 2x more memory bandwidth than this 8800GT, which has to hurt gaming performance.
 
Yeah, the 128-bit bus makes this barely faster than an old 9600GSO. Pretty "meh" if you ask me.
 
how can they even call that a 9800gt? it has 128bit instead of 256mb which also means it also likely only has 8 ROPs instead of 16. Newegg has the memory listed as 1400 but the Zotac website says 2000 which helps a little but it will still have the same memory bandwidth as the old 32sp 8600gts. :rolleyes:
