Ryan Shrout | Source: [H]ard|OCP | Subject: Graphics Card
It would seem our buddies at HardOCP have the scoop on some upcoming NVIDIA hardware: the 9800 GX2 card. According to Kyle's information, the card sports a pair of G92-based GPUs with 128 SPs each on two separate PCBs. It also appears to have a total of 1GB of memory on-board and will be the new "flagship" card from NVIDIA taking the highest priced spot from the 8800 Ultra card.
The HardOCP page also says that "Quad SLI" will be supported once again (lord help us all) and that the card should be seen in late February or early March.

Be sure to read the full outline at HardOCP for another pic and more speculation from them.
The best way to think of the GeForce 9800 GX2 card is as an 8800 GPU
that has been die shrunk to 65nm and placed in an SLI configuration in
a "single" card. The 9800 GX2 is very reminiscent of 7950 GX2
of days past. (And we loved the 7950 GX2 at launch, but terrible
support and diminishing returns soon painted it as one of NVIDIA’s
biggest failures since the 5800 series.)
