Word on the GT200 has been floating around for a while now, and we’ve seen a number of leaked benchmarks all over the world wide interweb. With the NDA being lifted, it’s time to check out what exactly is going on with the new card.

What we will be doing today is checking out exactly how much faster the new GTX 280 is when compared to the 9800 GX2, along with seeing how it compares against the top of the range AMD offering; the HD 3870 X2. For further good measure, we’ll also try it against one of the better valued for money NVIDIA cards at the moment; the 9800 GTX.
