Which is stronger, a x1900xtx or a GTX 512mb?

[potato28]

Mix of both due to lack of GTX 512's? 😛

X1900XT :~

I have played few video High Quality Video Trailer H246 1080 Trailer and it worked perfectly.

I would how ever recommend that you change to cooling system to an Arctic Cooling Accelero X2 because it keeps the temp down without making alot of nosie.

I think it is an awesome cooling system and can be easily comparable to the cooling system on the 7800GTX 512mb and its better.

p.s : its my edited message from another thread

Clearly the GTX because SLI already uses a bridge, while crossfire uses a limp dongle.

Heh... I got the idea from Family Guy - the one where there's a red button that says "dont push". Guess what Peter Griffin does... 😀

Ummm...most useless thread of the year? Oh we have a long way to go before the awards are handed out. And agreed, atleast it's not one of the " is X better than Y?" thread.

 

[Shortass]

More like most amazing thread of the year.

And we clearly wouldn't have enough GTX's to build an adequate bridge, regardless of it's clear superiority in massive heatsink.

 

[sandorski]

Whichever has the lower surface area will win.

 

[TanisHalfElven]

X1900XT b/c it has more (pixel) pipes lines

Assuming i wanted to build a bridge entirely out of ultra-high end gfx cards, which would be the card of choice?

Voodoo 5500, it'd take fewer cards.

Way to have a great sense of humor pal. :beer:

So can we get some kind soul to benchmark this at home for us?

I found a way out of it with Firefox. Hold down control, click OK, and then quickly hit the w key to close the tab.

But I'm sure someone's found a better way. I'm just happy that I've never had to restart by browser.
