Nice link, proves that it's 55nm 
55nm G92 is going to get close to RV770 imo, 9800GX2 /w 2 55nm G92's pls!

It's rumored to be able to beat the 4850 pretty easily (9800GTX+), ~15-20% increase in performance. (JUST A RUMOR!) Sounds very likely though, that's about what you would expect dropping the die size.

It's just an overclock really though, we could test the performance of the stock speed today if we want to. I think the rest of the performance increase is from drivers which is great and all but NV releases official drivers so slowly that part of the increase would have come about anyway.

TBH I think it'll clock a little better than the previous 9800GTX and the increased clocks are *hopefully* just from the die revision. The core speed only increased 68mhz from the previous 9800GTX which is about 10% more, sounds like just a die revision improvement to me.
I could see a 1GHz core speed on it (~260 core overclock, which is not that unreasonable).

The 9800GTX is going to fall to 199, while the 9800GTX+ will be 229. I'm not sure on the stepup policy, I've never done one before.

No they won't. If you're concerned you can see what return options you have through the reseller or with your CC company. Otherwise
sorry you're kind of SOL.

Welcome to computers, in 3 months something will be cheaper and better.

It's a standard 30-day return policy, so unless the GTX+ comes out before the end of june, i'm done for. But if the GTX+ a better card, i'll be content if EVGA will just let me exchange to it, even without the money back.

This was mentioned else where by ViperJohn. That the 9800GTX+ is suppositly a 65nm chip, that will be switched to 55nm. Don't know if its true or not but just remeber that possibly the early versions of the 9800GTX+ MIGHT be on the old 65nm DIE just OC'ed to said speeds with possibly little headroom.

It wasn't but we all knew the roadmaps that these are coming, now that ATi makes a bigger bang than anyone expected the weak NV 9K looks worse.
