yeah, i thought it should be selectable for the free version at least between 1280x960 and 1280x1024, but it's no biggie, for over a year i was running my 19" CRT at 1280x1024 and didn't even realize that 1280x960 was the correct 4:3 ratio for my monitor, and to be honest, it made very little difference

the product has been launched in other parts of the world you know..........the entire globe is not on one timezone......and of course, there would be a few Pro users and employees, and beta testers, and reviewers that already have it, so it's not surprising, no more surprising than video card benchmarks being out before an NDA expires
the x1800 series score is with a dual core isn't it and the 7800gt without dual-core and even lower clocked
so if those 800-900 points are true we have to subtract them from the x1800 score to get comparable results to the 7800gt. Which would mean the system with the 7800gt is faster in 3dm06 than the system with a x1800

Ok ... if the X1800XT is supposed to do "SM3.0 Right" why does it lose to the 7800GTX 256MB ?

The single 7800GTX 512MB walks it.

Yes, that seem s low, though the X1300 score can be perceived as impressive.
Anyway, these results indeed suggest Nvidia being better ... the 6800U has a higher score as the X850 PE, despite lacking 200 Mhz CPU frequency. I am very curious about the new 3Dmark.
(My X1800 XT is just about to arrive, man, what a day !
- yeah I know about 1900 XT, and don't care )Score one for nvidia!DudeMiester said:
Oh how so much has changed since the FX era...
No doubt nvidia will be pimping their across the board superiority :smile:
Perhaps we can rule heavy dynamic branching based on scores?
So ati's "SM3 done right" doesn't get a chance to stretch it's legs?
Since the in the shading dept. they only have totally superiority in dynamic branching otherwise they have much weaker raw pixel shading performance?

I was gonna post a comment about the drivers .. but didn't. Still it's been two months since the X1800XT came out. You'd think they would have the drivers sorted.
I was hoping to get a X1900XT .. but that might change to the G71 now.
