My performance simulation of GeForce 9800GX2

[OBR]

2x GeForce GTS-512, Two mobos with nForce 780i SLI - my today test rig.









I am testing two GeForce 8800 GTS-512 now, during this test i can to test "supposed" future performance of GeForce 9800GX2 ... i think.

GeForce 9800GX2 is two 8800-512 PCB together, but clocks of GPU a MEMs will be lowest, because heat. I underclock GPU/MEM from 650/1940 to 550/1800 in SLI and now i am testing games with. You can see results in first game ...

Dont get it,you post an unreal/estimated benchmark?

He is just running underclocked 8800GTS 512MB SLI

He is just running underclocked 8800GTS 512MB SLI

Yes, it is measured score of underclocked GTS-512 SLI ...

gx2 is supposed to be 30% faster than the ultra

[Warboy]

Indeed the GX2 is "rumored" to be 30% faster then the Ultra.

But from what your "simulations" say, Its about -30%

So Maybe they have something up their sleeve, Maybe its the G90 based and not G92.

Who knows. Why try to take guesses now. We can't do that till we have the card in hand.

K10 was supposed to be 40% faster than conroe

[LowRun]

Simulations based on speculation based on rumors posted as news, this is getting better and better

Score is lower only in low resolution ... look at 1920x1200 ... and Crysis game!

uhhh? so?

I'm pretty sure Nvidia would release a 30% overall then 30% in select apps / settings.

warboy what are you talking about

g80 640mb gts beats g92 512mb gt on very high resolutions with aa/af
but the g92 gt STOMPS the g80 640mb on lower resolutions.

it has to do with vram

[saaya]

you forgot one thing, the 9800gx2 will have 16lanes for 2 cards, so each gpu will have 8 lanes only, so itll be even slower than that

[systemviper]

So a little off center but Which 780i board do you like?
the
EVGA - Very hard to find
XFX - looks exactly like Evga and pops up every now and then
ASUS- is always available?

which board do would you get to run your dual 8800 GTS 512

thanks

You clearly do not understand. That wasn't the point of topic.

We're talking about pure performance. I never said anything about the 8800GTS G80 based cards.

[LexDiamonds]

While it is highly speculative, I like the thought process here.

[STaRGaZeR]

8800GTS 512 SLI slower than 8800GT SLI?

[KALISPIMENTA]

gx2 is supposed to be 30% faster than the ultra

Sli was also supposed to be almost double the performance and look where we are know.I think hardware is way ahead of software i will all depend on the drivers.

[Eastcoasthandle]

Interesting prediction, lets see what turns up in the wash.

[RaZz!]

lol, i find it somehow amusing that you put "geforce 9800gx2"-tag in these graphs. i mean, someone who just sees these pics will be like "OMFG, they benched a 9800gx2 and it sux ass!"...

could very well be mixed up.

?????

all testes the 9800GX2 its faster than ULTRA , the only test i see where Ultra its faster its in Bioshock @ 1280x1024


Bioshock @ 1280x1024

Ultra = 134 FPS

8900GX2 = 124 Fps

-7%


Bioshock @ 1600x1200

Ultra = 92 Fps

9800GX2 = 102 Fps

+ 11%


Bioshock @ 1920x1200

Ultra = 86 Fps

8900GX2 = 96 Fps

+12%



Crysis @ 1920x1200

Ultra = 26 Fps

8900GX2 = 37 Fps

+ 42%

[0maro]

Thanks for this "9800GX2" tests :]
40fps in Crysis @1920x1200.Uh..not bad I think But AF and AA is 0 :{
w/e,Crysis graphics is beastly and the best now with its CryEngine2.

Nvidia is losing its edge. Hopefully ATI's dual gpu solution is much better in scailing. I think it will be.

[Eastcoasthandle]

Wait, isn't the 9800 GTX nothing more then a 8800 GTX die shrink?

[EnJoY]

Remember, this was just a simulation, not real results.

[saaya]

9800gtx is a 8800gts g92 but with higher clocks afaik
