EVGA 9800 GTX+ 512MB Video Card Review

by Michael "SKYMTL" Hoenig     |     November 9, 2008

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare


This has quickly become one of the most popular games for the PC and with good reason. This is one of the few times I have experienced actual excitement when looking for a good area to record the timedemo. The graphics are amazing and at the same time quite demanding when you get into the higher resolutions.

For this test we recorded a 15 minute timedemo on the Crash multiplayer level and recorded framerates using FRAPS. The maximum in-game framerate was bumped to 999.



1280 X 1024





1600 X 1200





2560 X 1600




What struck us as a bit odd was the 9800 GTX+’s performance increase over a stock 9800 GTX in this game since it is quite significant. We tested again and again but always came up with a same result. Why question a good thing, right? One way or another, the GTX+ stomps on a long-standing tradition of ATI’s dominance in COD4 and proves itself a better overall value at least for this game.
