Nvidia has been busier than ever it seems shipping GPUs like they're running a fast food drive through. The latest GPUs to reach us that are of significance to people who really enjoy good graphics are the 9800 GT, 260 GTX, and similar 280 GTX. While the 260 and 280 GTXs aren't visually different, one is a fully functional GPU while the other is just ever so slightly scaled back almost like a few switches have been turned off internally.

The 9800 GT is basically a G92 GPU found in the 8800 GTS. About the only thing different are sometimes the labels and some firmware. That's not really a bad deal though as the G92 has been a really sweet GPU to the graphic card makers around the globe. It's basic core seems to have more to offer than what we've seen. Whether or not we've seen the end of it is as good a question as any.

Getting back to the 260 GTX and 280 GTX, these are the current top of the line graphics cards. You can find them shipping from just about every vendor. One of the newest graphics card manufacturers I've had the pleasure of working with is Zotac. Who is Zotac?

Zotac has been around for a few years now and finally heating things up by providing anything but stock graphics cards. The thing that stands out most about these guys, if you haven't browsed their product line yet, is that everything comes "AMP". That means, you won't find any stock frequencies here, but factory overclocked and tuned graphics cards. Their slogan is, "It's Time to Play".
