It's XFX again with its version of the GTX+.

Good cooling, CUDA and PhysX support, 55nm, Hybrid power support.

No bundled game, Poor overclocker, Expensive.

Bundle



XFX bundles the following accessories with their 9800GTX+

Installation manual

Driver CD

SPDIF cable

DVI to VGA adapter

S-Video to Component dongle

PCI-E to Molex power adapter

PCI-E power cable extender

One thing I liked is the PCI-E power cable extender. This should come in handy for people with cramped cases and is also the first I've seen bundled with any graphics card.

ATI Radeon HD 4850 is the best right now for the price. As for the temperatures, Palit has started selling 4850s with custom coolers. As per my experience, even while playing Crysis, the card did not go above 55c.!

I too bought a Palit HD 4850 for Rs. 9300/-, can now play Crysis with full graphic details and no FPS issues. Rins at 41'C at idle and 53'C on full load.

Azeem, PhysX support is an advantage as compared to ATI Cards - especially HD 4850. Btw Techtree, if not all, most of the companies who make HD 4850s have a dual slot heat sink design which is available for almost no price difference and companies like Sapphire are mostly pushing them in the market instead of the cards with original coolers. These new heat sinks are very effective and the card does not overheat any more. And the fact that this card takes up two slots and two PCI Express 6 pin molex power connectors is not listed in your Cons list??? Already this card is so expensive over the 4850 and then u again have to shell out extra money for buying a PSU that provides you 2 PCI Express power connectors!!!

PhysX support is an Advantage? Hello? Every card since the 8 series supports PhysX with the new drivers. As for poor overclocker, what did you expect? This card is just an overclocked 9800GTX (which I happen to own) with minor tweaks here and there. ....and for the love of God, WHO benchmarks current gen cards with HL2 and Quake 4. Is a copy of World in Conflict or Lost Planet SO HARD to come by?
