hmmmm that doesnt look quite right

Don't see why a 4870x2 would overall be below a 460 or a 5850, for example.

d_brennen · 11 Nov 2010 at 22:31

Didn't even know there was a 4650x2, unless they mean Crossfire?

Edit: and the GTX295 scores lower than the GTX260 :confused:

There are so many things in that chart that don't make sense.

Its also badly out of date.

use this - http://www.anandtech.com/bench/GPU/88

yep thats a good link. be careful though if your doing comparisons sometimes it bugs out and you need to switch the order. ie it might tell you a 5970 is slower then a 460gtx! but switching the order corrects it.

It seems to suggest a 580 is only <2% faster than a 480. Same for the 5830 vs 5850. No speed difference for the 275 vs 285.

I always find Tomshardware's monthly round up has a nice table at the end - here's the most recent:

Their charts used to be brilliant too for comparing cards, but they seem to update them too infrequently now to make them relevant (no 68xx on them?).

If you want to be pushed in the right direction just post up your pc's spec and the budget you are willing to spend on your next graphics card. Its also pretty useful to list your favourite games. To me you will usually make a better decision based on the thoughts of real world gamers than looking at one solo chart.

You make a very good point. Perhaps you can advise me on the same problem based on the games I intend to run?
My system is quite high spec so there are no bottlenecking problems. My choices come down to (mainly) EVGA GTX 470, XFX 5870, 6870 (all at a £200 price point).

My key games for this system to run will be :
Civ 5
Elder Scrolls Oblivion (heavily modded)
Crysis
Metro 2033
Arkham Asylum

The chart in 2nd post is accurate - its just they bench based on single GPU. Explains why a 4870x2 comes out below a 4870, and 295 comes out below a 260 for example.
