More Radeon HD2900XT benchmarks - Crysis demo and 3DMark06 again

[dsdsdk]

Eastcoast handle,

I dont have any proof.... you're right. the numbers must be real.

Imagine you had the card. You chose to break the NDA by posting benchmark. Why on earth wouldnt you post a ss of the driver, stating it's running a HD2900XT? Or a ss of the Crysis benchmark result.. If you didnt have the card and just wanted hits.. wouldnt it be easy to start up Excel and type some stuff?

I'm starting to worry about how much all these bogus R600 benchmarks are affecting the credibility of TPU.

I mean, c'mon guys! there're new R600 benchmarks every two days at the front page of the website, and each one of them contradicting the previous one...

I really miss the old TPU where real facts carried a lot more weight than run of the mill rumors...

Is it really so hard just to wait 9 more days?

i think we shouldn't say whether ati lost already or not, r600 isn't even out yet and just about any nVidia fanboy could make up benchmarks, it isn't that hard. even if they are real, we will have to wait till some trusty reviewer will test it.

Bastieeh... should stop posting this... Its getting to the point where people are getting brainwashed. Many people come here and this type of content should not be posted as it lowers TPU's credibility, why not wait until W1zzard posts benchmarks?

My request: STOP POSTING BENCHMARKS WHEN CLEARLY AMD STATED THAT AIB/ES PARTNERS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO GIVE OUT BENCHMARKS.

EDIT: Those websites never ever cite the source, its the same problem that wikipedia faces... please post this stuff on your own forum not here!

100% AGREE

That made my day .

Why can't we post news? I don't like how all these benchmarks from seemingly unreliable sources (every benchmark has conflicting data) keep appearing. If that was true, I would point it at driver issues but, AIB partners by no means are allowed to display their benchmarks.

The people who post these results just want views (might I say "Double Click?"), if they have an advertising plan, they might get more cash with more views.

EDIT: People who have the cards aren't by any means allowed to display benchmarks to the public... its the criteria that ATI/AMD stated. The benchmarks aren't even out yet, heck, I could make up the numbers.

Glad to see that you're back Tk!

I wouldn't worry they are posted all over the netropolis my man!

That's not my point... they are not posted on many credible hardware sites I'm afraid...

Just take a look at the "Crysis Demo" scores, do you really expect any video card to be only 30~35% slower @ 1600x1200 with 16XAF and 4XFSAA than @ 1024x768 with no AF and FSAA enabled in a game as graphically intensive as Crysis? Give me a break...

As long as you keep posting comments on such topics they will be posted again and again.
If you want such news not to be posted anymore just don't comment on them.

Not that I personally don't appreciate Bastieeeh's news or such news in general.

second i call raid on stuttgart

250 million for each, seems fair for me
plus some more after selling the benchs results to some site


ontopic: i see no problem posting this, t will even be funny to compare them when the real ones come out

 

[erocker]

what is with the screens now? How would 3dmark even know to call the vid card R600. Photoshopped crap if you ask me.

Because the driver says so:
