R600 3DMark06 scores
The Turkish website FX57.net spilled the beans today. They allegedly tested the R600XT and XTX model on a Conroe 2.93Ghz with 2GB DDR2-800 RAM together with an Intel i975x motherboard. They came up with the following results in 3DMark 06:
Radeon HD 2900 XTX: 12k | GeForce 8800GTX: 10.5k
Radeon HD 2900 XT: 10k | GeForce 8800GTS: 9k
The operating system used was Windows Vista. They used the Catalyst 7.1 (8.33) which seems rather strange, other reviewers report about issues with drivers, so newer ones should be more likely to be used for testing/benchmarking. That could mean the results are not that meaningful at all. Either the scores are made up or there's a little bit of headroom for newer drivers. Decide for yourself...

Looks like Turkish or a similar language to me.
so how long exactly until theses cards are released?
We will ALWAYS OWN!!
Of course, I'm more reasonable than that, and know that I'll be lucky if I get so much as Halo 2 for Vista :p. Ah well. More pressing matters do call, such as my drivers license. May 22nd I can drive legally without a parent beside me...:rockout:.
SUCKAZ!!
I wont overvolt the card at first when I get one, I dont think.. until it really needs it. Had bad experience software OC'in compatibility with some games.. so I'll just get/hopefully learn how to bios OC when it starts to show its age.
8800gts/gtx I think will be good competition if the price are ok.. but r600 might have way more OC'in headroom maybe, thats where it counts!
And let's not forget the extreme heat output these things have. Overvolting would be suicide for anyone without liquid cooling.
Oh wait, there's a version for people who can't spend $600 on a video card, I forgot :roll:.
"Great things take time".
I would like to get one at release but with limited $$$ and no income it just wont happen!
I needz to look for a job soon lol.
Thats what I read at wiki.org
The xtx will have 1gig.
I think Nividia has done somthing right with the 8800 from what I hear they give GREAT frame rates and nice visual too.
