Nov 22, 2013 The Driver 327.23 is a very good driver for the 9800 GTX+ It is the one I recommend. It was the last one optimized for 8000 9000 series. I was able to play GTA 4 Really smooth with that driver. Just use custom install and do not include experience or Nvidia update. Introducing the Performance Sweet Spot The EVGA 9800GTX is a fully featured performance card. With 3-Way SLI, PureVideo HD, HybridPower, PCI Express 2.0 and more, the EVGA 9800GTX is the perfect weapon for any scenario.

The card is based on NVIDIA's G92 graphics processor which is also used on several GeForce 8 SKUs. Overall this card is very similar to the GeForce 8800 GTS, the only difference are the higher clocks, and the PCB/cooler of course.Feature-wise there are no real surprises either. NVIDIA has added some Purevideo HD improvements, support for triple SLI and Hybrid Power to this card.
What is very refreshing is to see that this card is offered at a low price of $299 to $349. According to NVIDIA the 9800 GTX replaces the 8800 GTX which will probably go out of production soon. It will be interesting to see how well the card compares against the 8800 GTX in this NVIDIA 9800 GTX review.
