GeForce 210 and GT 220 Reviews

[MirageSys]

Here we see another fine example of nVidia's budget card beating the HD5870 in Batman Arkham Asylum as it utilises Physx to it's full potential *cough*
Seriously, what on earth was nVidia trying to do with these cards? This is NOT 2006 anymore, performance numbers of these cards are utter poo, in fact they are smelly poo. Not even on par with a 9600GT That is a VERY poor offering from nVidia... very poor indeed. I would have expected the GT210 to be ~9600GT, the GT220 ~9800GTX/GTS250 and the GT240 to be somewhere between 9800 and 260 192.
What a load of old tripe.
There is no point having DirectX 10.1 if you do not have the balls to back it up.

While the performance of the cards is woeful, why would you expect the gt240 to outperform the gt250 (which is a bit above the 9800)?

I guess it is because I thought with nVidia having a new DirectX 10.1 GPU they would have it occupy the NEW mid end with the GT300 cards being the DirectX11 High end, performance and enthusiast cards.
