    This french site purports to have the first GFFX5900 benchmarks (Please excuse the Google translation):

    If the increase in the performances is only light (but well presents) with "traditional" drivers, it strongly increases with the 50.xx! However, it could be that the scores are not comparable with those of Ultra GeForce FX 5800 which cheating always in 3d Mark 2003. In other words, although the difference between the 2 charts of NVIDIA is thin with the same drivers, it would seem that the 5900, it, cheating not.

    As you know it, GeForce FX 5200, 5600 and 5800 have a large handicap during calculations in Floating Point like the 64 bits (4 X 16 bits) or the 128 bits (4 X 32 bits). NVIDIA doubtless "looked after" GeForce FX 5900 in this field.


    I've done a quick trawl around, and really can't find out a lot about FX5900 (alleged NV35) - all the sites that have anything are by the most part Russian or Eastern European.

    You can read the full article here. Please don't laugh too much at the translation, Google does it's best, bless it... ;)
