n a statement, the company said that in benchmark tests it conducted using 3dMark05, it scored 7229 marks, and that is an industry best.
The tests were donducted using two GeForce 6800 Ultra PCI Express cards running in SLI mode on an Intel Tumwater based chipset, and using a Pentium 4 3.4GHz Extreme Edition processor, using the ForeWare 66.51 driver.
Nvidia just got pwned.n a statement, the company said that in benchmark tests it conducted using 3dMark05, it scored 7229 marks, and that is an industry best.
Well, the x800 Pro and 6800 GT have nearly equal theoratical fillrates. The results seem to match Farcry performance rather closely.The only thing i could think of, is that the clockspeed really matters on the xtpe and thus the 6800ue would be more close to it due to its slightly higher clock compared to the ultra. But what about the 6800GT?

Well, someone scored 7k 3dmarks with a single XTPE. Very close to the SLI setup.Where? not YOUR link
It is. But look how much importance a lot of uneducated people use 3dmark03 scores in deciding which gpu to buy. They can also use it for marketing purposes.Not at all. Its a benchmark. Remember? 3Dmark...nothing more

So basically they lost at their ultra (based on just one benchmark) as well as their entire FX line. As techreport said, both companies should be fairly pleased. Its not like another doom 3. I mean u cant even play this one, and the difference isnt even 1/2 of what doom 3 was percentage wise.
Perhaps it is "made-up" . . .. techreport is only getting 5771Originally posted by: lordtyranus

It is VERY important . . .
. . . . for a benchmark.
Both ATI and nVidia take it very seriously.
And Doom III is a really (really) crappy game with nice gfx . . . so what ? at least 3dMark is free.
:roll:
