Sites that benchmark in 1080?

[Obsoleet]

With new model panels moving from 1920x1200 to 1920x1080, are there any sites adjusting for this? Most people that output to a tv are going to be using 1080, and soon I think 1200 will be less popular for PC lcds as well. I never completely understood the 16:10 "compromise" to begin with, if you're that close to the 1080 spec that's so popular across the video industry then just go with it.

Anyway open to thoughts and any sites you might know of that have benchmarked the 5870 in 1080. I'd like to see the difference between 1080 and 1200 and how they both stress the card.

I don't really see the need, 19x12 vs 19x11, the difference in framerate should be neglible.

For some reason driverheaven randomly ran Crysis at 1080p but every other game at 1200.

To give you an idea of how minuscule the differences are, my GTX 285 ran 26.6fps on GPU_bench at 1080p and 26.2fps at 19x12. Depending on the game, it might even make ZERO difference as they may simply be cropping the image from 16:10 to 16:9.

Either way and think it'll be much of a difference. I mean if you look at the change between the two is only about 2%, which really isn't much.

Really you could just look at the frame rates and add about 2%.

where are you getting 2% from? 1920x1080 is 90% of 1920x1200 so 1080 would be 10% faster not 2%.

OP its silly to worry about something so small. those same sites are using a much faster cpu and different platform than yours too so you wont get the same numbers anyway. even if you had an identical system as that being used just factor in 10% as best case improvement at 1080 over 1200.

Real world differences. Exactly as Astrallite pointed out.

well it can easily be 10% so I would certainly not consider 2% to be the norm or average. anyway not trying to argue about it but I was just curious as to why you had said 2%. no big deal either way.

The game would be severely GPU limited if there was a 10% difference between 1080 and 1200, since it would be scaling perfectly pixel by pixel. Even Crysis doesn't scale at that level; the difference in framerate is about 4% with heavy AA. Not saying it won't happen, but especially if AA is off, the difference is very neglible.

Also, percentage is a function of the base framerate. If you are playing multiplatform games with fps in the triple digits the difference would be ratio wise, nearly imperceptible.
