This is 1 graphics card results right? And if so
Still I think I'll wait for R650... no rush (unless of course Crysis comes out)

[nicepun]

No crossfire yet? Sorry if I'm asking a bit much already.

[Circaflex]

compared to the 512mb model is it worth the jump to 1gb?

That looks awsome.......what were the system specs??.........nm

[guess2098]

those scores are single card. CF score since i only can make it run @ 16+4, those scores are not that good. but i will post it later next week

[guess2098]

512 vs 1024, i hope it would help. not really big gain tho. if you have any score please share with us

testing on 3.6G 1st with QUAD CORE

3d05 and 06 is very good

[guess2098]

3d05 and 06 is very good

i should turn off the ATi CCC minimap on 06 to get better score, but i forgot

[ahmad]

Stock 13k in 06 is awesome.

[Dynasty]

no surprise that its faster then 8800 Ultra in 3d mark 05, but other
3D marks its still little behind..nice work denny....

Cat 7.5's used in these tests ?

Hey D! Have you retired from benching? I haven't see you post numbers in a while.

Cats 7.5

E6600@3.89Ghz - HD2900XT@890/1075

3DMark06 = 13,479



If I were to have a quadcore I could be hitting 15K, I just used the 3DMark06 Calculator and replaced my cpu score with Denny's and it came to 15008...LOL I will push it some more and will run CAS3 on the ram later on.

[Okda]

finally a product that will bring AMD to the market again

nice results nicepun......

definitely not, just been very busy with work.....

Possibly...depends upon it's gaming performance, and not it's 3dmark performance though.

I'm curious on how much the extra ram will help with games actually, as I don't think any game currently can use that much ram.

[cantankerous]

sigh, hasn't anyone learned with the 512mb release that 3DMark scores don't mean a single thing? Who really cares how many multiple thousands of points you can gain from using this card while gaming has the card choke under high settings. There was 1GB tests done before the 512mb card came out and it showed next to no gain at all in performance in games. No game will take advantage of 1GB so I feel it is all going to be wasted memory that won't be utilized. R650 is where we have to wait and hope for changes because 16 ROP/TMU's just isn't cutting it when compared to the 8800.

[trajik78]

if its the same core, it will still suffer the same horrible drop in fps at high AA. more bandwidth is better but 1GB memory probably wont do much good till Crysis or Bioshock.

Both of those game engines(cryengine2 & UE3.0) support texture streaming, meaning they will use less texture memory, not more.

very nice scores

i forget to change to 7.5... i will try it maybe tomorrow or next week


here is some 16x+4x weak CF testing, 1st card @ stock clocking and 2nd card @ 500/500 clocking (much lower than stock clock speed)


3Dmark03.......................60120
3Dmark05.......................26586
3Dmark06.......................19390


just like Kinc said, CF uses less CPU overhead
also 01 doesn;t really benefit when CF enable

according to coolaler
3D06 701/1163 SLi.............19819

3D03 685/1150 SLi.............69224

[Sir IV]

very nice job

[perkam]

I'm loving the increase in 06 512 to 1gb

Congrats.
