R600 Benchies!

I noticed that as well, slightly odd indeed.

Oh yea, actually the other reason it looks fake is because I remember Gibbo saying scores similar to what we seen in this thread look pathetic compared to what he got. So these could be fakes that have been made by Nvidia fanboys?

On one hand I'm kind of glad I won't have to think about upgrading my current setup. On the other hand I would have been delighted if ATI had pushed the boundries a bit further.

Immature drivers could be the culprit. I'd take these with a pinch of salt.

R600 isn't getting great press lately, is it?


Its been getting abit, but yea not as much as I would expect, but its been a big subject on these forums :D
 
Well I hope these are genuine. I will then feel justified in moving to nVidia, it will also mean that Intel/nVidia are the kings in this battle.
 
I will eat my socks if these aint fake :) Because thats how sure I am that thease are fake, even if the pictures of the ATi drivers and system spec were shown I still would not belive this if it was from the same source/ person because they aint to be trusted.

They are fake, Gibbo already said in another thread his scores make those look pathetic, and the R600 doesn't show up as an 'R600 series', as 3DMarks does not know what an R600 is. :)

Exatly :D , but was it said that 3DMark could be modded to show R600 or anything? but either way, the guy who took these screenshots is a plank if he thinks it's going to be called "R600" on release.
 
Why the Display adapters was moved in the end of Device manager? To make photochop easier? ATi has a tradition of naming Raderon 19xxx series etc. Never seen a plain R580!
 
Hi there

These smell like BS to me or the tester either have very slow drivers or does not know how to setup a system.

His scores are somewhat low, should be somewhat higher. :)

Wouldent this mean its not as good as an 8800GTX as far a benchmarks are concerned?

Any real game benchmarks, but I dont think these are real tbh, it wont be called R600 series... it would be X2900XT or something allong those lines.

im with you on this, when i run 3D mark it says NVIDIA 8800GTS or something along those lines, not G80 series :confused:
