Yay, dont get to say this very often, if at all. E-penis stuff blah blah. I can finally say i have the fastest of something.....Powercolour X1950 AGP 512. Now to enjoy 4 x WSVGA goodness!

the fastest AGP card is actually the X1950XT AGP =p

Buger, forgot about that...e-penis shrink!

What about Gainward's 7800GS "BLISS"? Faster than both of the above I believe.... Not that it's available any longer, but still.
what specs? cpu limitations would cause results like that, but the x1950xt is clearly faster.Originally posted by: Agrippa
Interesting. I benched the BLISS higher than the X1950XT on two otherwise identical machines. A case of YMMV I guess.

which BLISS was it that you tested? there a 3 models of the 7800GS+ series that use different GPU's...the GS+ SILENT is the fastest of the 3 but it still falls short by at least 10% in some benchmarks and others it loses by as much as 25%...althought they do overclock pretty good and can get close to the 7950GT performance levels.
But at stock performance it is slower than a regular 7900GT PCI-E...

It's a while back now, so my memory may not be perfect here. However, I'm 99% sure it was: 3GHz Northwood @3.6GHz, 2x1GB DDR800, 15k rpm SCSI drives on P4P800 motherboards.

It was indeed a GS+ Silent. Both cards were overclocked, but the details of the clockings have long gone from memory I'm afraid.
