Hi everyone. I have a 9800 gx2 from evga and I can't really decide if stepping up will be worth it with the g280. My main fuss with the 9800 gx2 is that it will not play S.T.A.L.K.E.R. The other problem is the size of this thing make it so I can fit my tv card in there with out them almost touching. I have my case pretty well vented and even have a case fan blowing out since it vents out the sides and the back( verified air direction of the card with plastic) . When I was playing mass effect I checked the temp and it was all the way at 98 degrees celcius. I had ram problems and hope thats not the reason why and maybe its crucials bad. Performance wise I dont see a big change except here and there the g280 does better with aa and af. I do use that in almost all my games. From what I'm reading this new card is still huge and still runs pretty hot under load but its not a s big since its a single card. Do you guys think that the performance will get better with physx being utilized in new driver versions? Will new drivers make the g280 beat the gx2. Its only going to cost me about 60 dollars to trade up I was hoping someone had some good insight. Thank you all for your time and I appreciate any advice you can give me.
