I don't know GB, that's a benchmark. That only shows that the Nvidia drivers are more optimized for that. As for actual in-game performance, it's a more crucial thing to consider. There are a lot more factors that you have to take into account. The events happening during gameplay vary depending on what's happening, it's not preset.
But....it would still be stock ;)Quote:

wait, how can you have a supercharged 5.0L engine with a turbo and nos??? that wouldn't be called a supercharged engine. however, it would be the best combination, as a supercharger and turbo have their advantages and dissadvantages. man, that was pretty dumb. you could have at least said twin or quad turbo or twin supercharged. nice post. oh, even though this was a dumb post, the point is true. it would still be stock. instead of a ferrari 360, it would be a 360GT (racing version). just higher rpm's. thats the equivalent of an overclocked cpu, in a sense.
edit: no offense, but man was that funny.:D
This thread is nothing short of Hilarious...
The only thing the FX "Anihilates" is its own hype..
These stats are extremely dissappointing...

The Minimum frame rates scores are piss poor...
Seems like Users of this card may experience jumpy frame rates unless Nvidia does some work on their drivers...
So, by this reasoning, the P4 3.06 is overclocked and overvolted when running at 3.06 because it has to run at 3.06 to beat the P4 2.8 and because it puts out more heat than the 2.8.Quote:

The 500 mhz with the actual core revision hawe a lot of artifacts and need that 50dba fan to cool the card so you must be blind to not see that .
This card is pushed over the limits , what you talk about stock ???? , They could release the final speed @ 535 mhz GPU with 0 room for overclocking and huge heat and artifacts so what you would say then ,...you would say that is stock ?
At the end the card work with more speed that is sould work , Nvidia guys are not stupid , if they had cut a bit from core this would be a total disaster 7 monts after 9700 and with less speed .
I hope you see that this makes no sense.
Im glad i prebought and i can cancel both my Prebuys cause this is the biggest disapointment since my girlfriend not getting a boob job lol!!!
My guess is that the code creatures demo uses many complex pixel shaders. That is a weak spot for the 9700 Pro. Since there aren't any games that uses pixel shaders in that extent, I don't think it's worth buying the card for a freakin demo.
And, btw, how is anyone even considering buying a card that sounds like a jet taking off. The noice level is incredible.
I'm more thinking of buying the saphire 9700 Pro Ultimate Edition. It has a passive heatsink and has no noice at all. Since I'm going to run at stock speed, I don't care that I won't get as much headroom for OC.
Heh heh.....me 2 man. I'm gonna pick up a 9700 or an R350 now.Quote:

LOL about the boob job! My fiancee wants to get one but I told her she coudn't. At least not until we have our 2 kids. Then I WANT her to get one since they'll be all saggy heh heh. Gotta keep those things in shape temporarily to feed the next generation of tweakers!
MarcDaddy's girlfriend don't need a boob job. He Just likes everything bigger and better, LOL! She's got some nice ones.
The Radeon 9700 video card is the leader now at this point of time. The FX card did not blow out the Radeon 9700 video card by 30% so this card is a waste imo.
Hahaha.. this card is soooo not the R9700 killer.
Is it just me or is nVidia going into the business of selling lemons for 2003?
I just would rather get a 9700 and O/C it to 9700pro speeds:D
the real fight is between the regular fx and the 9500 pro
btw...
"NVIDIA takes the crown! No question about it - the GeForceFX 5800 Ultra is faster than the competition from ATI's Radeon 9700 PRO in the majority of the benchmarks" -tomshardware.com
... all i can say is wow... never going going there again for hardware info
I was pondering getting the FX but after reading the benchmarks from various sites I am VERY disappointed. I would hopped for atleast a 25% increase in speed at a minimal.
I am still not going to get the 9700pro or nonpro. It is just not worth it. I have never liked ATI products. I even hate the older All-in-Wonder I have prior to the Radeon products.
I might reconsider when ATI releases there 9700Pro killer and might reconsider then. But I guess I am going to stick with my G4 4600 and GF4 4400, oh well.
Yes, the GeForce FX is 77 decibels, but the Radeon 9700 Pro is 64 decibels based on anandtech's results.Quote:

You people are overexaggerating the noise of the GeForce FX. Is the Radeon 9700 Pro louder than a screaming delta fan? No.
The noise was measured in very close proximity to the fan, likewise I would expect the measured noise to be greater than 100 decibels if a screaming delta fan were measured with the same method Anandtech did to obtain noise ratings on those video cards.
