Re:Radeon X1800, X1600 & X1300 Performance In 3DMark - 2005/10/06 04:15

Right, same for the GeForce 7800 GTX. With 512MB,maybe this could change too. But I still wait to know if there's going to be an Ultra to get almost same performance.
Actually, the Radeon W1800 XT, like you said, will take a month to buy the card, and maybe at a price very high (not sure but I suppose). Those card are the first to be compatible Shader Model 3.0. This is a slap on ATI consumer. To get better performance with HDR, they will need those card, like even if CrossFire would be commercialized, they will have to buy new card.
Thats for some reason I prefer NVIDIA than ATI (and for overclock). By the way, ATI has nice card. Noisy but not bad. They still need to be working harder to be back at 100% in the race.
