Take them with a grain of salt.

If anything id say numbers coming from iD are more representative of an unbiased opinion especially considering reps from ATi and nvidia were present. Harcocp in the past has been accused of bias to one company or another and sometimes there has been proof, one time a benchmark score was changed and kyle denied it was changed despite evidence from about 50 forum members to the contrary, of course they ended up getting banned for it.

very true, this is the FIRST "review" or benchmarking i've seen where the x800 xt loses to the 6800. every single other benchmarking site, or review of this card i've seen, the "conclusion" said the x800 xt pe will be better then the 6800. dont forget, you have to buy a big ass powersupply to support the 6800.
|
I run my 6800GT past Ultra speeds on 350W PSU that came in a $20 case. Those power requirements are complete and utter bullshit.
|
i cant wait till you burn it out then.

If it can handle Far Cry maxed out at 1600x1200 in 90 degree weather for 5 hours straight with no atrifacting or stuttering, I think it's stable. rolleyes:

My Geforce4 mx440 will play the game at 140x20 resolution, bare minimum everything, and all the colours turned off. Oh, and I'll feed the hamster running my PC three times a day instead of just twice.
