My take on the disaster that is the GFFX. (long post)

[CMKRNL]

Actually, as CMKRNL put in, the price of DDR2 seems to be 50% more expansive than the 325%Hz counterpart. But, that's public information. we don't know how much Ati pays for it's RAM and Nvidia's.


Sorry, I should have made it clear. Those were nVidia's volume prices as of about 2 months ago. The percentage delta may have changed to some degree since then.

They're perfectly correct. They were benchmarking Quake I and Starcraft. All available resolutions (up to the very high 640*480!), all AA modes... no performance hit! Woohoo!

Actually, I think Quake 2 at high resolutions ( 1024x768? ) might have no performance hit with 8xS. Would be interesting to test
