nvidia is totally fab less and they put out orders to companies that manufacture (have fabs) semi-conductors like TSMC. (AMD)Ati might have done it in the past too, they will now be making a separate company out of their(AMD) fab plants.It is usually done so as to keep costs low because putting up a fab plant is very costly(in billion of dollars) so these companies source it out so they can put more of their money where they are better that is designing of chip hardware and the drivers etc .but y nvidia or ati not manufacturing them.....

Go for Zotac.
Thanks..I got myself a Zotac 9800gt for 5.5k....
But can you tell me how to overcloak the card as there wasn't any tweaking software bundled in the cd.
What is the max limit that the card can be tweaked to?
They just provided the drivers and directx9 in the cd. What crap!!!
Evn i can downld them from the net.
Sure
It depends on you how far you can overclock. Seriously, just google for "9800GT OC" and you'll know the limit of normal OC. But those who want more, you can search "9800GT volt mod" or "9800GT pencil-mod".
I've seen 800MHz Core Clock and 1200MHz Memory Clock after volt mod and pencil mod, not to mention 2200MHz Shader.
Hey guys I got my EVGA 9800GTX SSC card.
I installed it but the problem is its not being detected .
The fan of GPU runs but no display on thata GPU.
My copmuter is working fine with my onboard Graphics but while I am trying to connect to my new GPU no display.
My system configuration :
Amd Athlon 4200 +
Asus M2N- MX motherboard
1 GB DDR2 RAM
9800GTX GPU
Cooler Master 6oo watt Extreme Power SMPS
What to do now?
Try the follwings :
1. Have you connected the GPU power cable ?
2. Have you set PCI-E as the primary gfx option in bios.
Clean the pci-e slot & reinsert the gfx card firmly into the slot.
Try to clear the CMOS settings buy removing the CMOS battery from mobo & after 5 mins put it back & turn on your comp.
alrighty then.....
i have an old comp.... actually its too old.... A Pentium 4 CPU, 1.6 GHz, 1 Gb Ram... I decided to upgrade it with a 7300 GT graphics card so tat i could have atleast games like fifa running on it as for multiplayer purpose....
Now the situation is the graphics card is well installed... the computer also switches on well... but once the windows boots up i get a dialog box... saying....
Problem Report....
The Nvidia system sentinel is reporting that the Nvidia - powered graphics card id not receiving sufficient power.....
To protect your hardware from potential damage or causing a potential system lock up, the graphics processor has lowered its performance to a level that allows continued safe operations...."
I am using a 250W SMPS.... Do i have to replace the SMPS with a new one??? and if so then of what wattage??? or is it that the 7300GT is way to above my system requirements....?? Please help me....
