I hope for downclocked GTXs as well.. 8800GTS might be an improvement, but compared to it's bigger brother (at stock, Perkam, at stock ;)), it's just not worth saving the money, IMHO (if you have the money in the first place :p:)
Also, in the Chinese review, WTH happens in 3dmark05 to the 8800GTS' performance?? I sense chinese advertising there :nono:
Best Regards :toast:
Anyone else notice that in 3dmark03/05 adding 4xAA barely, and I mean BARELY effects the score, even at 1600x1200? Sounds to me like with a little driver tweaking the same may happen in games as well.
Well, with newer cards, 03 and 05 are nothing but a CPU test. You really do have to crank up the resolutions to test out the card(s).
And then you'll have to look solely at the SM 2.0 and 3.0 scores, as the overall score will still be limited by your CPU ;)...Quote:

That was at 1600x1200... The GTX takes less than a 1k performance hit for adding 4xAA and 16xAF in 03 and 05.Quote:

I'm staying up all night for this. If the NDA is so stupid to even include a specific hour like say, 9:00 AM Eastern Time, then I just wasted my time watching the review websites like a hawk...:mad: :slapass:
VAPOR EDIT: rumor has it 11AM EST, if it says don't post unless you have a review link or a comment on a review....don't post unless you have a review link or a comment on a review
The first official Review of a BFG GeForce 8800 GTX 768MB Review is out.

Very impressive SLI gains on 2K3 scores.
Agree, 60k in 03 ...
Any reports about the noise of the stock HSF? I imagine it to be louder than the X1900XTX

Maybe not the best review since it's lacking proper AA+AF explorations, but wow hehe....

Im zweiten Teil des 8800GTX-Artikels, untersuchen wir Spiele in hoher Qualität und hohen Auflösungen. Als Vergleichskarten werden die nVidia 7950GX2 und die nVidia 7900GTX mit hinzugezogen. die Temperaturentwicklung wird ein weiteres Thema sein. Das endgültige Fazit rundet den nächsten Teil ab, zu dem wir Sie herzlich in den kommenden Tagen einladen möchten.
Sorry, nach den turbulenten letzten Tagen war einfach nicht mehr möglich!
due to the lack of time they'll release a part 2 of this review where they're going bench games in high resolutions/high quality. additionally, a comparison with the 7950gx2 and 7900gtx is planned.
i'm looking forward to part2 of the review - impatientness is killing me :D
8800gtx vs. 1950xtx in single and sli/crossfire done here by the inquirer

That will be the one I think, the cooler should do until someone comes out with a decent WCing block. Im just sitting here with my credit card itching.
if anybody finds some high rez tests done with SLI on AM2 platform please let us know.
a tester i know has seemingly found that the 975 chipset is actually the bottleneck at high rez...
when tested on AM2 the scores were far greater :o
so now i'm thinking in SLI at high rez this may become even more shockingly apparent
HeavyWeight Reviewers taking their time :rolleyes:
Not to mention the primary rule when buying an 8800 will now be:
Bottleneck, bottleneck, bottleneck.

this might mean that for the high end gamer AMD could be the platform to have :O
anyway it will be very interesting if someone could test this strange situation for us
Intriguing hypothesis...will have to be proven in house though ;)Quote:
