    Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe they are core: 500 | memory: 800 | shader: 1250

    Two points.

    1. The 8800M GTS downclocks automatically to 200/100/400 for 2d and it also has a low 3d setting around 383/300/766. It does this to save power, I'm sure the 9800mGTS does the same.

    2. RivaTuner doesn't read the clocks correctly. Use ntune, the stock clocks are 500/800/1250 for the 8800m GTS if I'm not mistaken.

    rivatuner does not work correctly with the 9800gts nor the 8800gts, the only thing you can use ATM is Ntune to under/overclock.
