GeForce GTX 400 Series Performance Expectations Hit the Web

a_ump · Feb 27, 2010

hey i'm still kicking a 5 yr old 7800GTX. 1280x768 isn't too pretty on my 21.5in screen thou :/.

Nvidia will poop fermi and it'll either be the shit or be diarrhea that just runs down the drain.

at least you are feeding that card properly. Id have to upgrade to do that.

feeding it properly? if you mean raping every last penny out of it, sure XD cost £117 when i got it.

No I'm saying the CPU is feeding it, I'd have to overclock my CPU to get any benefit out of it. Atleast drivers are still there for both versions.

Do you have any proof of what you've wrote there??

All the o.c. forums are saying that o.c. the RAM of current 57xx and 58xx is useless, since it provides very little performance gain, even when using liquid cooling or sub-zero custom H2/ He/N2/etc cooling. The main performer is only the GPU, so where did you got your informations, mind if I ask??:shadedshu

Look around in some of the benchmark threads.

Or how about the firing squad review? http://www.firingsquad.com/hardware/ati_radeon_5870_overclocking/

Not only does OCing the memory provide a small increase at stock gpu speeds, but it provides an even bigger increase when you OC the core speeds. As the core speeds increase, so does the need for bandwidth.

As far as the 2900 vs the 3870, I switched back to the 2900 from a 3870 because the 2900 was a better performer under water cooling with a highly OCed gpu. For anything else you want to know, you'll have to dig around in the forums for posts from around that time. There were actually a few of them.

I had a 2900. That thing was a tank!

The HD2900XT had some type of memory bit interface, something called a ringbus or something, wat was that?

I thought the ring bus was on X1800-X1950 cards?

I think hes right. The 2900 I believe did have a ringbus.

THe X1800,1900, 2900 Utilized a Ring Memory Bus, just on the 2900 it was inefficient vs the previous boards.

Oh I see, thanx for clearing that up for me, wat was it exactly?
