Asus GeForce 9800 GTX TOP Edition Review
Tweaktown published a review of the Asus GeForce 9800 GTX TOP Edition graphics card.
Quote from the review: "When it comes to overclocked cards, there are only a few companies that really take it to the max. Zotac go pretty hard with its AMP! Edition line-up while Palit get some pretty mean speeds with the Sonic models. The only other company that really takes the time to test the cards and get into the high overclocks would be ASUS with its TOP line-up.

Foxconn GeForce 9800 GTX OC 512MB Video Card Review
Benchmark Reviews published a Foxconn GeForce 9800 GTX OC 512MB Video Card Review.
Quote from the review: "NVIDIA usually pleases the enthusiast community with their product launches, and no launch has been more memorable lately than the GeForce 8800 GTX and GTS graphic card launch more than eighteen months ago. So when the 9800 GTX product line launched on April 1st, 2008 there was a lot of commotion surrounding the new crown prince. With such a successful debut of the 8800 GTX back in 2006, the level of enthusiast skepticism surrounding the new 9800 GTX was unquestionably high. First came the lower mid-level 9600 GT, and then the ultra-high level GeForce 9800 GX2 which utilized two G92 GPU cores. Yet title of fastest single-GPU video card remains the honor of NVIDIA's GeForce 9800 GTX.

Review Round-up: NVIDIA 3-way SLI. XFX 9800 GTX Black, Sony HDR-SR12
Last week we reviewed for instance the a NVIDIA 3-way SLI using a trio of the NVIDIA 9800 GTX.
With the choice between Quad SLI and 3-way SLI Shane would go 3-Way. The performance is very good and the only real tradeoffs are the loss of an additional pair of expansion slots and the need for a higher power PSU. NVIDIA’s 3-way SLI is one heck of an upgrade path for gamers who start with one 9800 GTX and move to SLI and later 3-Way.

GIGABYTE GeForce 9800 GX2 Graphics Card Review
Tweaktown published a review of the GIGABYTE GeForce 9800 GX2 Graphics Card.
Quote from the review: "The latest 9800 GX2 incarnation to make its way into the labs comes from GIGABYTE and carries with it all the standard goodies that we expect out of the 9800 GX2. The latest 9 series of NVIDIA cards have impressed us, but like we’ve said all along they haven’t offered the revolutionary jump that we thought the 9 series would offer.

Palit GeForce 9800GTX Review
GamePyre published a review of the Palit GeForce 9800GTX graphics card.
Quote from the review: "Palit has done a good job with the reference 9800GTX video card in that they have included a game bundle and their entry into the US is most welcome since the video card market needs more players bringing better competition to the retail market place for the video card dollar. Palit support needs to update their drivers as NVIDIA has released the 174.74 Forceware and the drivers on Palit’s website are based upon 169.32. The 9800GTX is the fastest single chip video card I've ever tested. Having said all the positives on the 9800GTX, the 9800GTX is not much of an upgrade over the 8800GTS 512MB that was released last year and is in fact just an overclocked version of that card with more power requirement and a higher price.

I4U Review Round-up: Ugobe Pleo, Panasonic DMC-L10, Asus EN9800GX2 Top
Last week we reviewed everything from a robot dino, over a SLR camera to an overclocked graphics card.
Shane's verdict on the Ugobe Pleo dino robot is very positive: "If you are looking for a way to get out of getting your kids a dog or cat, you might want to take a look at the Pleo. Pleo offers a very similar interactive experience for kids short of following them around, playing fetch and pooping on the rug."
