    Customer Reviews Of XFX PVT96OSDFH GeForce 9600 GSO 768MB 192-bit GDDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card - Retail

    or

    Newegg.com - EVGA 512-P3-N879-AR GeForce 9800 GTX+ 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards

    I cant help but notice that the bottom one, the GeForce 9800 GTX+ is more expensive, but the cheaper one seems to have better specs?

    Which one is going to give you better gaming performance?

    9800 GTX is higher up the chart when it comes to performance. I actually own one and can play most comes on high settings at 1920x1200 resolution.

    The GSO is just a bottlenecked 9800/8800. Basically the GTX+ is a superior card, but the price difference might not be worth it to you. Perhaps a 9800GT or 8800GT instead of the 9800GTX+ would be more fitting?
