    INQ reviews overclocked eVGA 7900 GTX vs Stock X1900 XTX

    That's a stock 7900 GTX, not the superclocked eVGA 7900 GTX that was reviewed by INQ. The superclocked GTX has higher clocks (duh) and is warrantied by the manufacturer to operate at those speeds so it costs more. Since it took a superclocked GTX to barely match a stock XTX, the INQ pointed out...

    Hdr + Aa

    So which of these scenarios could it be: 1. MS paid Bethesda a good chunk of change not to add in HDR+AA for the PC version. 2. nVidia had a hand in Bethesda not adding in HDR+AA. 3. Bethesda are incompetant and lazy so they didn't want to take the time in to add HDR+AA.

    Hdr + Aa

    Well the game isn't stable with any card when alt-tabbing and yes it's true there are grass shadow flickering issues and according to some CF problems as well that should be sorted out in 6.4. That doesn't mean the drivers are nearly as unstable as you made it sound in your other post though -...

    Powercolor Troubles -- Maybe!?!?

    When your card isn't running a 3D application it clocks down to 2D speeds to conserve energy. There's nothing wrong with it, don't worry about it.

    HDR+AA in Oblivion for Ati X1K!

    This patch just proves Bethesda weren't fully truthful about HDR+AA. They claimed HDR+AA wasn't possible on the PC. Yeah it's not possible on nVidia cards and since Oblivion is a TWIMTBP title, it makes you wonder...

    Radeon X1600XT vs GeForce 7600GT in 'Oblivion'

    Who's the idiot that does Gamespot's graphs? All variations of red for the performance graphs...:rolleyes:

    ATi vs. NV --- Availability, Plenty of X1900's, very few 7900's

    Power consumption isn't a problem for anyone buying a high end card or at least it shouldn't be anyway. Heat output isn't a factor either since it's blown outside the case with the X1900 hsf and as for price and availability, it is more available than nVidia's 7900 cards and costs less.

    Oblivion Video Card Benchmarks

    I don't think that changes the vs/ps render target which are still 2.0a for nVidia and 2.0b for ATi cards.

    ATi vs. NV --- Availability, Plenty of X1900's, very few 7900's

    Look at the OP's post and then look at the prices for 7900 GT/GTX cards, the availability has gone down while the price has gone up. Why is it that the 7800 series, which was uncontested at the time, never ran out of stock yet the 7900 keeps running out despite being on a smaller die? nV fans...

    ATi vs. NV --- Availability, Plenty of X1900's, very few 7900's

    If the 7900 series were being mass produced, availability would be high just as it was with the 7800 series. In fact 7900 stock should theoretically be even higher since it's made on a smaller die - well theoretically anyway. Reality is showing quite the opposite, the 7900 series has been...

    X1900XTX has 48 pipes??

    Hey brent, Will you guys start adding newer games to your benchmarks like TimeShift (demo out today), D&D Online, Resident Evil 4, Oblivion etc? I hope you guys diversify games in your testing a bit .

    X1800 Series and X1900 Series OC settings

    Good thread, bump. I'm still waiting on newer drivers and software before OC'ing my XTX.

    Do X1900XT cards user 1.2ns memory or 1.1ns memory?

    X1900XTX will work with X1900 CF edition and the difference in clock speed makes no impact on performance in CF mode. BTW I think your invoice is wrong - the XT should be 1.1ns but if you're paranoid, then go get the XTX for $25 more.

    Do X1900XT cards user 1.2ns memory or 1.1ns memory?

    I have an X1900XT and it uses 1.1ns ram just like everyone else I've talked to that owns one.
