8800GTS 320MB Performance 580/950

1280x720 AAx4 AFx16 HDR Medium, everything else default
Snow
50FPS AVG

Cave
45FPS AVG

1360x768 AAx4 AFx16 HDR Medium, ALL OPTIONS DEFAULT.
Snow
47FPS AVG

Cave
44FPS AVG

So it shows that I made a good choice on the 320MB for the price, for my setup at least. I think the fire was tacky.

I did the DX10 version on 8800GTS (640mb), 158.43, Vista 64-bit, and E6600 @ 3.6

Default (1280x720): Stock/OC
Snow: 46/57 fps
Cave: 64/69 fps

Edit: Okay these new drivers have some issue with overclocking for me. And it doesnt seem to scale much higher with overclock settings at 650/900. And couldnt get fraps or printscreen to work with fullscreen so I had to use window snipe.

Going to try the DX9 version and DX10 versions with an 8800GTS 320MB when it gets here on Friday, should be interesting to see the differences.

DX9

3.6 xeon
8800GTS 631/950 shader modded
2gb ram

1280*800 (wheres the 1680*1050?)
max everything
16qaa
16af

snow = 49 fps average
cave = 68 fps average

I tried playing the game and locked up Need to flash old bios back, the OC'd shader crashes in this heat




Does DX10 look that much better? Pics would be nice

There's a bug in the DX9 demo, people are reporting lockups with it.

[afireinside]

I've been having similar issues with a few other games at times also so I wasn't sure.

[IKIKUINTHENUTZ]

Does this mean we have something that we can actually temporay bench on for 8800s or r600s dx10 capabilities? (until 3dmarks 07 comes)

[m0da]

Not sure. In the other news thread about this game being benched w/r600 and 8800gtx, the site said the nVidia drivers have been optimized for this game and the AMD/ATi drivers were still... well, not really optimized for anything \=

HD2900XT, Q6600, 4GB PC6400

DEFAULT SETTINGS, 8.36 driver, DX9 version

SNOW: 82
CAVE: 76

[96redformula]

Guys I am noticing a HUGE PATTERN HERE. If I go into the PC Settings and change anything, even lower shadows or put shadow resolution on low I LOSE FPS. I have tried this with multiple settings and with the exception of resolution, I LOST FPS by lowering the graphics options(i.e. shadows, motion blur, hdr).

So I think that there is defiantly something fishy going on with the drivers.

[[XC] hipno650]

ohh those 2900xt numbers look pretty good there. i am going to try the dx9 version on my 7900gt lets see what happens

[cadaveca]

HD2900XT, Q6600, 4GB PC6400

DEFAULT SETTINGS, 8.37 driver, DX9 version

SNOW: 80
CAVE: 74


Funny how this card is faster @ differnt test than nV...

CPU @ stock too, btw.

OC'ed GPU ONLY @ 850/1000

SNOW: 90
CAVE: 76


Seems "CAVE" test is cpu limited. More fun to be had later.

[theteamaqua]

can anyone try DX10 .. im getting only 56fps snow DX10 everything at default with GTS @ 660/1000, E6600 , 4GB .. it was playable , but certainly not fast

oh i use Vista x64 btw ....

[cadaveca]

I'm using Vista32, and there are textures and such missing from my DX10 version. Maybe i'll try to re-download, but I can already confirm that the performance is not as stellar as DX9 version, and considering the source of the file(nzone), frankly, I'm not surprised.

It's not as fast as X1950crossfire @ stock, but 850/1000 compares well, with what, to me, seems like better image quality, mainly due to a more consistent framerate, when it comes to games.

[theteamaqua]

i dont wanna dl DX9 ... again ... and the performance is bad on DX10 ... its playable at stock 1280x720 4xAA ... and such.. in fact i just beat the cave mission, but im getting some crappy performance on performance test .... with 158.43 ... lol at that legit reivew

i was under the impression that DX10 suppose to be faster than DX9 .. so much for that ATI slide from HardOCP last year ....

Mine is similar to yours. With everything max the frame rate gets hit hard. The driver doesn't seem to like anything over 660/1000 as well.

[theteamaqua]

which one was the 1st demo .. snow or cave??

[Starscream]

can someone with a dx10 card run both the dx9 and dx10 demo with the same settings and clock speeds and post results?

this to see how much extra performence dx10 gives over dx9.

[Kunaak]

vista is installed.
DX9 and DX10 versions installed.
both tested.


heres the early results.

1360 x 760 (or something like that)
all options maxed out.

PC used.

Quad Core 6600 at 9 x 400 = 3.6 ghz.
Corsair 8888 ram, at 1000 mhz, cas 4-4-4-8.
P5B deluxe.
8800 GTX, heavily modified to run 650/2100 mhz, with a 1566 mhz shader clock.

Vista Ultimate 32.


DX9 - snow = 52 FPS - Cave = 62FPS (cant be right, since verticle sync is on, but whatever)


DX10 - snow = 27 FPS - Cave = 31 FPS.

all settings the same from one game version to the next.
basically, you lose half your frame rate by using the DX10 version.

still testing....

snow was 59

and @ kunaak

yes thata pretty much what i got... with DX10 everything mexed out just gave me horrible fps ... unplayable

like i said i was under the impression that DX10 suppose to make games run faster .. lol ... what a bs
