no thats right
100% performance is 1 8600gts
and theres a 90% performance gain, 190% performance of the 8600gts
but 90% performance gain
LOL ya maroon1 is going to be mad, now if only AMD could win back the CPU Crown, imagine how mad he'd be then!

my close friend is gonna be ****ed...........im pretty sure he was looking into the 9800 GX2. However, i think that we need to see benchmarks before jumping to conclusions. Who knows, we all might get fooled n the 9800 GX2 does better than we thought.

Who knows, we all might get fooled n the 9800 GX2 does better than we thought. | The thing that gets me is that usually the marketing on this stuff is over exaggerated, 190% 8600GT power sounds pretty weak for a high-end 9 series card. Maybe it's a typo?
