Definatly. Obviously a lot of guys here are extreme benchers, but for gaming, the XT is the better choice, of course, i never had a 512mb, but i wouldn't want one.

Well there's no difference in 'gameplay' obviously, but the XT gets more FPS with better IQ IMO.Quote:

These cards sure are massive.
I did expect better temps, with the size of the cooler, and all copper.
Well IQ with FPS is what a highend GPU is all about. :slap:Quote:

Also many here know I am testing X1K CF. I have a tidbit of exciting info I can post. I just got another master card. This one is not a non-qualification sample. (Pre-Production sample that is made in Canada) It is a full production part. For those waiting for Crossfire this is a really good sign..... :woot:
Great news :clap:Quote:

Its doin pretty nice in 3D2k1 so far for me. Stock air.

Yes, the only thing I changed is disabling the tray add-in. Also I don't know if this has anything to do with it but just prior to this bench I used the ATI Uninstaller for the first time, then re-installed 5.11b's. Setting 3D clocks is nice and seems to me the way it's designed. The screen does not black out like it does with 2D changes.
And I did not install WMD or whatever it's called ;)
