Custom PC does Doom 3 Benchies

[Zak33]

and WHAT A GOOD READ

It popped through my door this am and I am GLUED to it

They are using DirectX 7 and 8 and 9 cards, and rippin into them when they deserve it for this game , ie GEFORCE 5200 which is a DX9 card gets mashed by the power of the Rad9500Pro

It also shows that some of the lowlier ATI cards do considerably better lighting than the Nvidia equivalents, ie a Rad9200 (which for those who dont know is NOT a high end card, its an old core, someone help me on which one please) at similar , if low, frame rates. The 6800 Ultra just pips the X800XT to the post, but.....*cough* the vanilla 6800

With this is mind, the new standard 6800 card with it's 12 pipelines and lower clocks has the potential to be a bargain Doom 3 card if it drops below £200......exceptional frame rates-84.1 fps at 1024x768 and a far more than adequate 43.2 fps at 1600x1200 with 8x anisotropic filtering

bloody told you

Just pips? In the HardOCP benchies it was creaming it. Are they using the 4.9 betas for the X800XT?
