ellilion Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 hey, just got my new Nvidia 6800 GT I figured a throw up some benchmarks I did. test system= amd athlon 64 3200+(no o\c) abit KV8-Max3 MB 1gig(2x512mb) Pc3200 cas 2.0 Ram Soundblaster Audigy 2 zs 2x 160gb Seagate 7200rpm 8mb cache SATA HD's in raid 0 win xp pro w/sp1 and all updates Ati 9700pro w/catalyst 4.6 (no o/c) Nvidia 6800 GT w/forceware 61.71(beta) (no o/c) all games were set to max quality/settings for both cards and 32bit color ----------------------------------------------------------9700pro | 6800 GT---(added 61.34 drivers benchmarks) 3dmark 2k3(3.40) 1024x768(default)----------------------------------- 5221 | 10886----(10893) 1280x1024(4xAA 8xAF) -----------------------------1750 | ???------(4754) 3dmark 2k1 se 1024x768(default) ----------------------------------17774 | 21557----(21851) 1280x1024(4xAA 8xAF)-----------------------------10351 | 16166----(16081) Aquamark3 1024x768(AFx4(default))----------------------------38397 | 58773----(59969) Farcry (no AA + AF(avg FPS)) fort demo 1024x768 ---------------------------------------------41.55 | 66.56---(68.26) 1280x1024--------------------------------------------30.00 | 65.63---(67.74) UT2004 (no AA + AF(avg FPS)) br-colossus 1024x768 --------------------------------------------173.38 | 194.82---(196.16) 1280x1024-------------------------------------------123.41 | 176.79---(177.85) dm-rankin 1024x768---------------------------------------------195.75 | 231.78---(232.63) 1280x1024-------------------------------------------124.73 | 209.93---(211.36) I did have issue with 3mark2k3 when trying to run 1280x1024 4xAA 8xAF on 6800 gt but i think it may be driver issue they are betas will try to mess with that somemore but i ran it twice and it crashed(to windows) at different benchmarks??? but the one time it almost made it thru whole thing and it was faster than the 9700 pro at default settings and i would say at least 3x faster than it at 1280x1024 4xAA 8xAF(i'm guessing it should score between 5000 to 6000) All other tests ran fine ***UPDATED***-the 61.34 drivers worked real well but do seem a little slower than 61.71 with AA and AF tuned on, but at least I was able to complete all tests with no problems-- visual quality on both drivers were excellent. Still want to benchmark HALO, Call of Duty and BF vietnam plus some more benchs with 4xAA and 8xAF on some of the games but pretty impressive on most of the benchs, really good on 1280x1024 should be more impressive when using AA and AF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellilion Posted July 1, 2004 Author Share Posted July 1, 2004 Well Halo wouldn't run with 61.71 beta drivers at all switched to 61.34 and it ran fine -------------------------9700pro-------|------6800GT HALO 1024x768--------------48.67--------|------89.09 1280x1024------------33.57--------|------76.89 again all details/quality settings maxed out, no AA or AF, avg FPS not bad over twice as fast at 1280x1024 will update other benchmarks with different drivers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellilion Posted July 2, 2004 Author Share Posted July 2, 2004 I ended up with an extra copy of FarCry, is anyone interested in it for $20? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Ob. Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 BTW, how does FarCry look now on your new card? better/worse/same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellilion Posted July 2, 2004 Author Share Posted July 2, 2004 Looks real good(better) running with 2xAA, 8XAF,and all settings to max at 1280x1024 and it still runs alot faster than it ever did on the 9700pro. I am VERY HAPPY with this videocard. But i usually end spending alot on a videocard every 2-3 years but when i do buy it usually doubles my preformance. I had radeon 7200vivo, then 8500(retail), then 9700pro, and now 6800 GT. I always wait till the preformance boost is a big leap from what i have. I figure I'm good with this card for 2 years maybe longer unless PCI X helps alot more but that shouldn't happen till next year anyways once the software catches up to the hardware.

B.Ob. Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Nice, what is the GPU/mem clocks at? Last I saw, 350\500 was stock for the GT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellilion Posted July 3, 2004 Author Share Posted July 3, 2004 Yeah 350/500 core/mem clocks, i haven't even messed around with o/c yet I'm still amazed how fast it runs at stock speeds so no need to o/c. Not yet anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
