Depends on what you are doing. Logically, 2 9600s would outperfom 1 9800. However, that is assuming the appliaction(s) you are running can handle and fully utilize both cards, otherwise the 1 9800 will still outperform the 2 9600s because in reality, only 1 of those 2 cards will be used half the time. Programs are getting better though at utilizing more than 1 card though.

Re: Finally Ordered New Gaming Rig
I have to agree with Axeager that price seems off, but if you can get that system at that price good for you. :9 I ran AMD for my first few rigs switched to Intel extreme quad core QX6800 and never looked back. I have to upgrade every year just to have a chance against you guys. So with that said what would be the ultimate gaming rig for today?

This second card would have bumped the price up another $200.00 from them thou still not bad. Trust me it is cheaper to let someone like Cyberpower build one than you doing it yourself if you play with the pricing like I did. This rig also included things I wont use, like a flash media reader and a wireless card with antenna. But what the heck if it is cheaper it's like getting them for free.
