Sparkle has decided to play it safe with its new overclocked 9800GTX card, branded Calibre P980X. The new Calibre is overclocked to 734MHz for the GPU, and that is probably the safest way to go, as Sparkle probably doesn't want a lot of these cards to be RMA-ed.

Beside the overclocked core that works at 734MHz, the rest of the specs include 512MB of GDDR3 working at 1116MHz (2232MHz effective) and 128 stream processors clocked at 1836MHz. Unlike most of the Calibre edition cards this one comes with reference cooling.

The new Calibre supports DirectX 10 and Shader Model 4.0, and as we mentioned before, expect it to be priced over €300, just as every other OCed 9800GTX is.
