Alright, so I was looking around online, just curious of the 9800GT and higher cards are (for my new rig soon), and when I saw the price of the 9800GTX+, I saw it was less than a 9800GTX, which doesn't make much sense to me :confused:. Isn't the + better than the non +? But I looked around and I think that the 9800GTX's were less common the the +, is that the cause maybe?
Feel free to debate below or to prove me wrong :D.

No, I'm not going to check or anything, but it shouldn't be. The 9800gt should be cheaper.

The same reason if you can find a 8800GT it is higher then a 9800GT. They dont make 9800GTX anymore, just like the 8800GT. You can find GTS 250 cheaper then a 9800GTX+ because the supply of 9800GTX+ are drying up.

This in combination with the utterly spastic pricing of hardware, its actually not too uncommon to find a better performing part for cheaper if demand for the inferior product is high.
