The two sites I've seen thus far with any benchmark comparisons done arent reporting any significant gains in real world applications.
FWIW...
From Rage3D:
GLQuake - Tenebrae mod
1024x768x32 - NoAA, NoAniso
30.82 = 43.1fps
40.41 = 43.4fps
Tiger Woods 2002
1024x768x32bit - NoAA, NoAniso
30.82 = 63.045
40.41 = 63.125
1280x1024x32bit - NoAA, NoAniso
30.82 = 48.137
40.41 = 48.109
F1 2002
1024x768x32bit - NoAA, NoAniso
30.82 = 97.872
40.41 = 98.965
1600x1200x32bit - NoAA, NoAniso
30.82 = 65.880
40.41 = 66.524
From VR-Zone:
3DMark 2001SE
30.82 = 55.29
40.41 = 54.3
Comanche 4
30.82 = 65.880
40.41 = 66.524
Quake 3
30.82 = 271.4
40.41 = 277.7
RTCW
30.82 = 160.4
40.41 = 162
Serious Sam SE
30.82 = 107.8
40.41 = 108.3
8 benchmarks and the only one that showed any signifcant differential was 3DMark.
And with so many people reporting image quality issues in this
thread it doesnt seem much of a "benefit" at all.
I don't suppose anyone else has anything besides 3DMark benches to report?
