ASUS - X800XTPE vs X800XT in Half-Life2 (framerate)

[plxkarl]

Well Having those 2 video cards not worrying about the money:

ASUS Extreme AX800XT PE/2DHTV

Graphics Engine:.......ATI Radeon X800 XT Platinum Edition
Video Memory:.........256 MB DDR3
Engine Clock:...........520MHZ
Memory Clock:.........1.12GHZ (560MHZ DDR)
RAMDAC:.................400MHz
Bus Standard:.........16 lanes PCI Express
Memory Interface:...256 bit DDR
Max Resolution:.......2048x1536
VGA Output:...........VGA Output (per DVI To VGA Adapter), Standard 15-pin D-sub
HDTV Output:..........HDTV cable
TV-out put:.............S-Video and Composite
DVI Output:............DVI-I
2nd DVI Output:......Yes
2nd VGA Output:......Yes

AND

ASUS Extreme AX800XT/2DT

Graphics Engine:.....ATI Radeon X800 XT
Video Memory:.......256 MB DDR
Engine Clock:.........500MHZ
Memory Clock:.......1GHZ (500MHZ DDR)
RAMDAC:...............400MHz
Bus Standard:........16 lanes PCI Express
Memory Interface:..256 bit DDR
Max Resolution:......2048x1536
VGA Output:...........Standard 15-pin D-sub
TV-out put:.............S-VHS and Composite
DVI Output:............DVI-I
2nd DVI Output:......Yes
2nd VGA Output:.....Yes


What will be the difference in the framerate between those 2 having an engine clock and momory clock higher in the first one. Will it be at least 10 frames advantage ? What do you think ?

Now also will FireGL V7100 have an acceptable framerate in Half-Life2 too? what could be a framerate and framerate drop in Half-Life2 for this tough guy? I know that this is not the gaming video card and that it is more for 3d development. In this post i'm interested only in framerate numbers NOT lectures about video cards.

Give it a try !

HL2 Performance - AA/AF
HL2 Performance - Just pure speed

Since the game comes out in 2 days (and it seems you are interested in it), why dont you just buy it and run the benchmarks. Those videocards you have wont run away.

about 5fps difference.

Russian, I didnt ask you to make my mind up and buy that video card, what i'm asking is just a framerate on each. I'm thinking it will run around:

ASUS Extreme AX800XT PE/2DHTV - 80FPS
ASUS Extreme AX800XT/2DT -70FPS
FireGL - 50FPS


What do you think guyz?

X800 XTPE if you can get it, it's a better overall option if you're not worrying about money.

FireGL for gaming? Get a 9800pro insted dude, way cheaper if you don't need the workstation extras

 

[plxkarl]

9800pro ? what would i need that 4?

 

[plxkarl]

Still No framerate guesses ?

If you are not worrying about money, get the PE, it will run faster, maybe not the biggest difference in todays games, but look at the 9800pro compared to the 9800xt good preformnace increase on the xt, it would be basically the same comparison

What's the problem exactly? I linked 2 reviews with different settings and those cards in question.
