Hope you don't mind Asgard, but you keep asking someone to post some scores from Crysis to compare and i'm yet to see anyone do so, so i've just done some quick benchies on my GTX to compare:


The Asgard said:
All runs at Clocks 820/2200 (GTS 512)
Q6600 @ 3Ghz
DX9

Crisis GPU run

1680 x 1080 everything on high apart from post processing which is medium.

1680 x 1080 everything on high

Now my GTX benchmarks

GTX @ 621/2000
Q6600 @ 3Ghz (9 x 333)
DX9 (WinXP)
169.04

1680 x 1080 everything on high apart from post processing which is medium.

Sufficient to say, the GTX gets rather trounced by 7fps in both tests.

So it seems the GTS's superior shader power really gives it a boost in Crysis, and that the constricted mem controller and the fact it has less physical memory doesn't seem to hinder the card in the slightest.

Now with AA results may be a different story all together, but for no AA the GTS v2 soundly beats the GTX.


One thing to remember is that The Asgards GTS is rather massivly overclocked to its limits! I'm not sure what the average OC is on the stock cooler of those cards, if its a fair bit less then the gap will obviously fall between the GTX and GTS.

Also my GTX has only a mild OC of 621/2000 which I run day to day a lot of the branded pre clocked cards ship at that speed, if your GTX clocks higher then once again the gap will obviously drop.


Still, no denying it atm with no AA, the GTS 512 is the better card for Crysis.


Other games, and gaming with AA, well thats a different story and not one i'm going to get into!

:D
 
Thats cool for benches like 3DMark but in real use like Games most run AA or it looks like a 360 lol.

The GTX is over 1 year old so no shame in that anyhow.
 
He wont mind, at least not until his suspension is lifted.:o

Your results look strange, you get a higher minimum with settings set to all high than when you do with PP set to medium.
 
not everyone will run their graphics card overclocked 24/7, so what im more interested in is a stock GTS 512MB vs a stock GTX in Dx9 or Dx10 Crysis.

seems to me that GTS 512MB is aimed to perform in Crysis with its faster shaders and more processing power, Crysis is a GPU intensive game, however, it's NOT a video memory intensive game, take any vRAM intensive game and the G92 graphics cards will be beaten even by 8800GTS 640MB
 
Well if someone has a GTS 512 and a Q6600 they can slap at 3Ghz i'd be happy to do stock GTX benchies to compare.
 
Interesting you should start this thread I was just playing with Crysis and the new GTS.

I've kept a record of the average frames with the same setting on three cards now. Using my 24/7 settings for the cards, not flaky top end clocks with 100% fans. This GTS will go higher, around 850Mhz. The GT went to 740 before any bios mod. The GTX was happy at 660, wouldn't go to next step 675Mhz for long.

XP DX9 Crysis set to High, No AA. No mods. 1680x1050

All stock coolers (around 60%) btw, no mods.

GTX at 660/1674/2160 = 35.95
GT at 720/1782/2000 = 34.65
GTS-512 783/1944/2106 = 39.17

Interesting, highly clocked 8800GTS vs moderately clocked 8800GTX at 1680*1050 with no AA. wow, shocking results. :rolleyes:

all in the name of a weener extension :p


Id imagine the GTS is the faster card till the resolutions go up and the aa is put on. Ive seen benchmarks of an overclocked gts beating a GTX. But no overclocked GTX vs overclocked GTS. Considering this is extreme vs mild it doesn't really count either.
 
all in the name of a weener extension :p

That pretty much sums it up

BUT the medium 8800GTX results are dodgy anyway as the minimum is lower than the results with high settings, but the minimum framerate at high is better on the 8800GTX, so that to me says the gameplay experience on the 8800GTX is better. :D
 
Whats that then

GTS-512 783/1944/2106 = 39.17

Also if you want to run the game at 19x12 with aa on then use the gtx, however whats the most popular resolution of gts gt and gtx owners in general?

No idea, but more peeps have 22" and 24" LCD's than you would think, so game at 1600's and 1900's (infact one new ASUS 22" does 1900's AFAIR).

I have a 22" CRT (can do lot more than 1920x1440), but due to my Drivers not working on a 64bit OS I cant get correct RES or HZ in Vista.

Those results with med post processing do look odd, but i've re ran the benchie and I get the same every time so...

Also this is no e-peen extension for me, I have a GTX, i've seen the scores and I would still rather have a GTX over the GTS 512, I play games for eyecandy, and AA is a must.

Yes Asgards scores are high as the GTS he has is really highly clocked, hence I pointed that out.

I'll see if I can get my GTX higher for some more benchies.
 
Which settings are you using in nvidia control panel ? quality or high performance? i am getting 52 fps average here with 169.09
everything high post medium 1680-10550 gt @751/1804/2002
 
Quality, same settings i'd use to game.

And 52fps can't be right as thats higher than what Asgard gets with a massivly OC'd GTS...
