Well after a quick look around it seems like there out and about, but with a hefty price tag to boot 9800's...http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010380048+1069633099+106792522+1067937879&name=GeForce+9800+GX2

Its cheaper and more efficient to SLI two 8800GTS G92s than to buy one of those cards.

I'll give you cheaper, but what tests have you seen that suggest more efficient. BTW, I take "more efficient" to mean better performance.

Its not in SLI but I guess you can increase the frames by 35%-45% for SLI config?

and thats the 9800GX2 review. Keep in mind that the review for the 8800GTS G92 is at 1920x1440 so its processing more pixels than the 1920x1200 in the 9800GX2 review.

Ah and yes, by efficient I mean better performance (more frames).

Looks like a big disapointment so far... :(
Not to talk about the price tag.
I think ATI's next generation of cards will unfortunately kick the Nvidia's series aside.
