NVIDIA announced the launch of the GeForce 9800GX2 graphics card, which it claims is “bar none the fastest graphics card on the planet,” at the current time.
“The GeForce 9800GX2 is at the cutting edge of technology; with 256 screaming fast processor cores and a 1GB total framebuffer, all running through PCI Express 2.0, means the GeForce 9800GX2 is designed from the ground up for Gaming at Extreme HD resolutions.”
When the 9800GX2 is combined with an nForce 790i Ultra SLI chipset, Hybrid Power allows less-intensive application to run solely using the integrated GPU, and more-intensive applications to use both in tandem.

Top Recommended Games
Half-Life 2 Orange Box: Arguably the best first person shooter ever created. The Orange Box Edition gives you Half-Life 2, Episodes 1 and 2, Team Fortress, and Portal. This is amazing value and a must for any PC gamer's collection.
Call Of Duty 4 Modern Warfare: As the name suggests the Call Of Duty series has been brought up-to-date with very satisfying weapons and some great environments. The single player is good but it's the online multiplayer that really shines with this game.
Colin Mcrae Dirt: This has to be the greatest driving simulator you can currently buy. Run this game in high detail at a high resolution and it looks stunning! Playing Dirt with a steering wheel and pedals is as close to the real thing as it gets.
