Graphics New 7800gt - just benched it

that seems pretty high for stock, or is the card overclocked?
you have a compare link?


heres mine for whoever was asking earlier, I remembered my ORB login and uploaded the score

card and ram are clocked a bit higher now, ill run it again at some point for a giggle, maybe give the GPU 1.65v and do a vDDR mod for kicks (at 1.52 vGPU and stock vDDR at the mo)

 

I managed 17500 on '03 - evga 7800GT CO/opteron 165 (275X9; 1:1)/dfi sli-dr!

these are great cards!

 

These cards have great potential.

With my CLUB3D 7800Gt i get

3dmark03 = 18.4-5k
3dmark05 = 8.5k

 

does the X2 3800+ add much preformance over the regular singlecore?

 

absolutely
in games which are multi-threaded it can be considerably faster than an FX57

simply put, the X2 3800 is twice as powerful as a A64 3000+, in the fact that its just two of them

 

i was told that the X2 3800 was not any good, and i would have to get a X2 4400 to see any benafit, thanks for the tip, looks like ill go for this one

 

in single threaded applications, yes, it won't be any faster.

 

if you are going dual core, best way is with opterons (all have 1mb cache per core, tested to higher specs, lower volt requirements, designed to run at 100% load all the time!)


i dont know if you can get them anymore though!


if you are going dual core with athlon x2s then it really is worth spending a little more on getting a core with 1mb cache per core - it will make a difference, and all of them overclock to at least 2.6-2.7Ghz, so you will be getting great performance!
