Yes! HardwareCanucks puts out some of the best reviews around and that would take them up a notch. Since they're FRAPS fiends anyway it should be trivial to capture and graph the framerate over time.Quote:

Three Overclocked HD 5870s vs GTX 480
http://www.extremetech.com/article2/...2362685,00.asp
I want to see Quad CF/4 way 5870 "stock" vs Tri GTX 480 "stock"
Any review did that and very interesting results thanks OTH specially the gigabyte card.
impressive graphs to say at least :ROTF: btw fermi really has huge problems with high res pretty much dies at 2560Quote:

In Dirt2, 5850 CFX is 19.20% ahead of 5970.

IMHO, that's very weird. :(
Would someone know this site ? The article is really interesting but I wonder if the site is reliable.Quote:

I saw that, still didn't explain it.
I think I figured it out: they are running v1.0 of the demo. That's silly.
"Interesting" results to say the least. Even with the v1.0 of the benchmark, I don't think I ever saw results that low at 2560 x 1600 without AA enabled. :S
They had two sets of runs, DX10 and DX11. Apparently thats the DX11 run. DX10 run was at about 20FPS. In your tests you had a much faster CPU clock.Quote:

sounds (not literally) like a good place for the gtx 470 to be
too bad every review site is dropping the ball and not comparing these things directly? I guess you have to give them time to figure out how to overclock something.
