Just throwing some benchmarks in here:

BFBC2

I just played BFBC2's first level with everything maxed out and vsync off.
MIN: 18
AVG: 67.862
MAX: 127

Reference: http://www.guru3d.com/article/gigabyte-gtx-560-ti-soc-review/18

EDIT:
You could try BC2 32-player multiplayer maps as they are more demanding than the single player.
Sorry it took too long lol, here is the results in Conquest mode.

MIN:0
AVG:67.085
MAX:187

The min is probably cause I couldn't stop FRAPS before it started going into the menu or something.
Crysis - The original beast

6950 OCed



For this game I used the benchmark tool on 1920x1200 resolution everything set to Very High with 2xAA and 16xAF - Basically the same settings Alienbabeltech used in their benches.

I used FRAPS to record my FPS as I was playing through the games (except for Call of Priyapat and Crysis).

For about $310 that spent (260 for the 6950 2 GB and the Shaman cooler) I think I got a pretty good deal, my results indicate performance right in the ballpark with a GTX 580, sometimes exceeding it which I think it pretty awesome.

Any games you guys want me to test let me know, I will test them if I have them. If anyone wants the CSVs that FRAPS creates, send me a PM I will gladly send them over to you.

I will of course add more benchmarks as I have time - Thanks for looking.

NOTE: The sites listed as reference are the setting I was using in an attempt to create a fair comparison, if anything seems off please let me know.

Those are excellent results. Have you posted a pic of your rig? I though you had, to show the GPU cooler. If so, would you mind refreshing us with a link? If not, take a picture, man! :D

Do you have the steam version of Metro?

Can you do a reference run in metro using the benchmark tool? You can find it in the game directory. Called metro2033benchmark.exe (I think)

Oh man, that benchmark tore my 6950 a new hole. My results, I am kinda disappointed but I am not sure how these fall within the bigger picture:

Yeah, that benchmark is really rough. I'm not sure how many sites are using that for their Metro benchmarks. Seems most of them are doing some sort of custom run, which makes it impossible to get a good comparison.

That is still a nice score for a single card.

Could you do me a favor and run similar/same setting with a single GTX 480 for me? I just want to compare, I have been looking online and it seems a lot of people/sites use all kinds of different settings making it impossible for me to make a true comparison.

Anyone else who can post their results with similar/same settings is welcome too, I just want a comparison.

Can you tell when DOF is disabled?

The top one with 31 fps is DOF disabled

Nice score Groove, I am right behind you in terms of average score.
How does your Gtx 480 compare with a Gtx 580? Are we in the same ballpark here?

A 480 is as fast as a 580 once you get it to around 820 on the core, so it's fairly close.

Cool, cool thanks for all the information, anyone hear if these cards can hit 1100 core? :cool: I will atempt it tonight, of course Ill throw up some other benches later as well.

Great numbers! Are those stalker runs with 2xAA? If its at 4xAA it's demolishing my single 580 averages by nearly 20 fps.

You should try crysis with 64bit, should give you a few extra FPS.

Added Crysis benchmark :cool: .

That's quite a good run! I get 16 min, 32 avg @ 1920x1080 without any AA, 32 bit, fullscreen, with my two 4870 @512mb and the processor at 3,2. Time to upgrade I see.

@ Skurge - I dunno about 64bit, it took 2 frames away from the averages, with and without AA. Also couldn't get it to work in windowed mode properly.
