X800 Pro on my Rebuilt System!!!!!!! Benches

When you get really fed up with ATI drivers, game of UT2004 will put a smile back on your face

Try some online ONS missions if you can. Its amazing that even with the most demanding 32 players matches, X800 card is still capable to use full detail, FSAA 2x and AF 4x without impacting the gameplay.

BTW X800XL, which oviously isnt much faster then X800PRO, rivals 6800Ultra in UT2004 at higher resolution with FSAA and AF enabled

Yup, 1600x1200 to the max is a pretty sweet place to be! As an aside, it's interesting to see that the X800XL (and likely Pro) pumps out over twice as many frames as the 6600GT at these settings. OK, I know it's not a fair comparison, and the 6600GT is still an incredible card, but it goes against the law of dimishing returns when an extra 50% in cost gives you over 100% in speed. Swith to Doom 3 of course and it's back to 50%, but that's still impressive to be proportional to price.

jankerson, how did you benchmark UT2004, I'm interested to see how scores compare, relative to 3DMark.

There was a huge difference in performace overall.

Great card.

F_A_L_C_O_N,


Been playing alot of UT 2004 and man what an awesome game!!!!!!!

The more I play it the better I like it.

I have Doom 3 coming too. Should be here tomorrow.

I just ordered an X800 XL pcie16x for my new Athlon64 system. I'll post some benches Monday night or Tuesday. I made sure to get the version of the card that required a power connector- it seems to make a huge difference in overclocking ability. As it should, the pcie16x slot can only put out so much juice. I'm hoping for close to X800XT PE clocks once I get the cooling finalized.

Man these X800's are SMOOTH....

Doom 3 is running very well too, smooth.

Glad you like UT2004

I think ONS missions when playing against good players are almost perfect mix of tactical level "strategy" and action

Haven't tried those yet, still getting used to the game. Haven't played the old UT in awhile so UT 2004 is a big change.

New System 2001se @ 500/520 20535


Old System 2003 @ 520/560 11082 (With Audigy 2)

New system @ 500/520 11143 (No 60 Sound test)


Old System 2005 @ 520/560 4890

New system 2005 @ 500/520 4904

Jankerson:
Is the above with the same video card. That seems reasonable for more cache and faster memory, from what I gather 4x to 8x agp may not make a difference at this time.

Same Type of video card, both are X800 Pro's.

I blew up my first one and had to replace it... Thanks to CompUSA for replaceing it no questions asked.

I think I blew the memory.

Thats why the difference in clock speeds.....

After adding new ram 3Dmark 2001SE @ default speed.
