Details aren't quite hard and fast, but this is NVIDIA's top-of-the-line to-be, so it's never too early to start nerding out. HardOCP says the best way to think of the GeForce 9800 GX2 is a 8800 that's been shrunk down to 65nm and SLI'd onto a "single" card. The card is supposed to be at least 30% faster than a 8800 Ultra, and will apparently support Quad SLI. So, now for the really nerdy part:
  • 1GB frame buffer
  • Two PCBs
  • Two 65nm GPUs
  • 256 Stream Processors
That's the way HardOCP tells it, and who are we to argue?

The 7950GX2 was a good card but it became useless soon after nvidia gave poor support for both SLI and quad SLI.With quad SLI and directX9 one was only able to render 3 frames simultaneously so it went useless.Even though nvidia gave nice Anti-Aliase on the two other in quad SLI few users used.
The GX2 series till now has sucked because of nvidia.
BTW thanks for the news

Here's the Exact Details/Pics from Tomshardware.com:

Exclusive: Nvidia GeForce 9800GX2

The first pictures of what seems to be the GeForce 9800GX2 have just popped up on the web. We now have a good idea of what the card looks like.
*images.tomshardware.com/2008/01/05/geforce_9800gx2_card_logo_.jpg
We know that the 9800GX2 has 2 printed circuit boards (PCBs), as did the 7950GX2 in its time, two graphics processing units (GPUs) using 65 nm nodes (most likely G92s with 128 stream processors), 1 GB of memory (512 MB for each GPU) and two DVI outputs.
We don't know yet if the GeForce 9800GX2, which is supposed to be 30% faster than the 8800 Ultra, will support Quad SLI configurations.
The expected price: around $449 US. Expected announcement date: February 14, 2008.

***********************************************************

They say its priced around $450. So US based stores will keep it around $50-75 higher ... max of $525 = Rs. 21000.

But in India, Price + Import Duty + XXX Tax = Rs. 25000 to Rs. 30000 ... i suppose.
