No FSAA:

4x AA + 8x AF:

Config: http://www.tecchannel.de/hardware/1109/15.html

Is it true? If so, this card is sucks, even for $399 only.

Not very impressive, and it's the Ultra.

ToshiroOC · Jan 26, 2003, 08:18 PM

I think its time to sit back and wait for r350

DriveEuro · Jan 26, 2003, 08:38 PM

Eh, I'm not impressed. Although that IS with PC2100 ram. I don't think that these results are real and true anyways.

Excuse me?

Mainboard 1 ASUS A4G8X

It's the INtel E7205 chipset - PC2100 dual chanel DDR. The fastest right now.

Wow, it beats the 9700 in all the benchmarks. I guess I was wrong about it not living up to it's hype.

(<------HINT: I'm being sarcastic...

Screen shots of Dawn lol i want to see Dawn!!

Ok now... hows thier cinamatic games gonna look?
Wheres all them screenies? Also can an ATI 9700 give you cinamatic quality?
Cause if it can.. then yes Nvida is in trouble, but if all it can do is drive pollys well you know...can anyone say V5 thing? im still not convinced that all nvidia can do is this? maybe im wrong but i hope im not for compititions sake. Ahh well time will tell...if it dont, ATI here i come

well it doesn't look impressive, but I'd rather wait until a site like Anandtech does a review on it

I believe with an 9700pro and Linux you can render LOTR in realtime. DirectX 9 is what gives you the cinematic quality.

Before ATI brought out the 9600 Pro, I would've answered with a clear Yes, but now, it's just as good (or bad).
The 9600 Pro is a cut down version of the 9500 Pro, and they also cut down the good AA performance, effectively nullifying their lead over the GeForce FX:

(just an oppinion , but one things for sure nVidia dont rulez, not anymore, after seeing those benchmarks!!!) maybe some day i'm gonna get myself an ATI....
