Will post a screenie soon, but here is my DX9 results
average 78.60
max 126.42
min 57.64

DX10 takes quite a big hit compared.
average 52.72
max 75.66
min 36.58

[email protected], 4 gig ram 1.1 467fsb. 4870x2 stock speeds.
I actually play at 1920*1200 with 16x AS no AA, DX10 mode and it runs really well

Might have a little play with my clocks later as I can get more out of CPU and GPUs are stock.
Should be able to break 80 fps on the DX9 test

Just done this test at 1920*1200 and it runs just aswell in DX9
average 78.06
max 118.77
min 56.01

Heres my DX9 pic

Is the 9800GTX faster than a 4870 or something? I thought it was slower so the 4870 should be beating it by quite abit? I notice DX10.1 must be working though? faster frame rate in DX10 compared to the GTX that is quite abit lower.

the 9800gtx is overclocked as much as it will go without being unstable

the Trad2 cooler on it has allowed me to get another 8% out it
i dont understand why it is faster than the 4870 cards as it is usually the same or worse as them on most benches i have compared with

The 9800GTX result i saw was slower than my 8800GTX :confused:

i know - im going to run it again tonight and check the average over a few runs just to see if something went wrong

tbh - the 8800gtx is still showing its wotth in modern games - that is quite an achievement for any graphics card!

I was talking about the DX9 results at first. The 9800GTX is faster than 8800GTX, and all 4870 on that.

like i say - i will retest and see if there is a difference
