The GT300/Fermi Thread

[takamishanoku]

Excellent read from the Hardware Cunucks article which i can honestly say has always been the first place in which i read any review. They seem to give you exactly what you want to know and break it down in ways that you can understand (instead of techno babble).

Anyways whilst debating benches on FC2 is fun i think people are really missing the point of the whole GF100 arc. Basically with the current gen of games the G100 would have good performance but won't really blow the 5870 out of the water. Honestly though why on earth are people debating current games?I'm sure most that loved it have finished it already as well.

The G100 will really shine with NEW or NEXT GEN games i.e. DX11 and tessellation and will then really have the performance advantage esp with other goodies (AA, etc). We are talking way more than 20%, which for me is significant. That's what i understand from reading the articles.

So basically i think i always knew that the 5870 is a great card and it was always going to be difficult to make it look bad. But it is a beast for what's out now and not what's to come. That in itself says alot. It will be interesting with more benches..
