Re:Radeon X1800, X1600 & X1300 Performance In 3DMark - 2005/10/06 18:06

the 3dmark05 benchmarks seem to be a bit misleading. yes the X1800XT scores about 1500 more points but if u look at this review http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=26720 the 7800gtx can hold its own in many games. ati are probably just optimising drivers for it... not that nvidia dont do it too, its just that ati seems to be doing a better job.
That's not the reason. The reason is simply that 3dmark05 uses MUCH higher poly-count for the game scenes than even the most up-to-date games, and so the Radeons have an advantage (8 vertex-pipes @ 625 mhz is simply better than 8 vertexpipes @ 470 Mhz).
Has been the same for X800 vs GF6800 too.
