Zzzzzz

The numbers do reflect the playability of the new source engine, but I would also like to see some uncapped benchies 🙂 and maybe benchies for 5900/9800 too as stated here
 
Thanks, that is the nicest way anyone has told me it's a repost before. I swear someday people will actually take the time to put the name of the site and the actual name of what was benched in their thread title so a quick search would have been enough to avoid a repost 😉
 
Everybody makes reposts sometime or another, unless you read anandtech forums 24/7.. so don't worry about it 🙂 this is good information here!

I second that.

Overall, for an optimized ATI based game, the NV cards only being 7fps behind (70 vs 63... still over 60fps) on the new engine proved quite the good showing. Its nothing like what i expected (the reverse of doom 3 benches). Although the 6800nu's scores kind of did reflected my expectations of the difference between that and the X800pro. I find it odd that when AA is enabled in the source engine, that NV cards had slightly worse AA as compared to the ATI cards. I wonder if in the control pannel, setting these settings would eliminate this problem and it being just a bug in the engine that they still have to iron out. I also find it odd that at just one setting NV's top card loses. Kind of interesting how its not linear. maybe its memory bandwidth or something to that effect. Who really knows.
