That's launch 8800 GTX level. Keep in mind though, this only gives us a ballpark, and not really how it performs in actual games.

Since launch is still a few days away, can you or someone run their GTX or GTS @ 2.66Ghz (Core2Duo, of course) and stock vid card clocks? Should help give some perspective.

Thanks in advance.

Well, seems it ain't going to be "bad" at all ! And do we know if the drivers used was a beta version of the upcoming Catalyst 7.5 or was it specifically made for benchmark purposes ?

I can't wait to get rid of this card. I have so many problems in BF2 and 2142.

I got EVGA, but I think I have seen enough yellow screen and lock up's. My friends have the same problem with GTX.

I hope your poor attempts at being the new Rollo/Gstanfor get you a quick ban

FYI Ati currently has better drivers all around than Nvidia, specially because they dont take SIX MONTHS to update them :roll:

Um nVIDIA has been rolling drivers every month as they have claimed. Their latest drivers are quite an improvement from last time and have SLi working. (Mostly stability, and performance/SLi AA is soon on the way)

I agree with your first point though. Someone PM the mods about this because from what i can tell, this is 100% trolling.

Well, I dont have an Nvidia card, but I remember recently someone making a thread about how the last Nvidia drivers were from NOVEMBER 2006? I mean, sure there are lots of BETA leaks, but I am talking official ones

The November 2006 drivers were for the GeForce 7-series and older on Windows XP. There have been very frequent releases for G80/Vista.

Why should they support the cards that they don't make anymore? ;) I guess most companies do the same thing.
