9600 GT Benchmarks Released

[Jimmy 2004]

VR-Zone claims to have some benchmarks of NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce 9600 GT graphics card, which will be the first of the GeForce 9 series of cards that the company will release. However, as always with benchmarks for unreleased products, take these with a pinch of salt - as often as not they're totally made up.

Wow thats pretty good for an nvidia mid-range offering considering there recent mid-range crap.

 

[WhiteLotus]

but how do they compare to nvidia current mid range!

 

[cdawall]

if this is true they should have a pretty good card coming out

I would like to see some real world performance, 3DMark means nothing to me.

There are three non-3Dmark benchmarks there... COH, Crysis and World in Conflict.

Oh now I see them.. sorry I dont think this warrents the hassle of swapping my 3850 for it doesnt seem worth it for only a few more frames.

If real performance seems nice. How is powerusage though? If they use a lot less power I'm quite interested.

 

[Nicksterr]

Wow nice results. Poor ATI.

i bet it's fake, no way nvidia (or ati) would do a midrange card that would destroy previous high/medium end cards

I was in my thinking corner about this and it took me 3 seconds to relise... HYPE FOR THE 9800GTX!!! if the 9600GT beats/comes close to the 8800GT then people are gonna be like OMG or somthing.

now i wouldnt say that look at the 7600GT vs the 6800ultra it killed the prev gen uber card in everything

I dont think its fake, or atleast not far from reality. We all know that ATI´s latest cards are not really the beast´s we would like, so it is possible that the 9600 card would be faster. And if you think about it, its an nerfed down g92 gpu?

 

[nguyenpeter76]

it's a way for nvidia to screw ati hd 3850. this card looks tempting for me since i dont even play that many games but want to have a card that can run them if i plan to

 

[EastCoasthandle]

A lot of smoke and mirrors with TWIMTBP at work here (if these benchmark is accurate).
I am sure that a low end mobile 9000 GT (or whatever they decide to call it) would be able to beat ATI's offerings as long as the game is TWIMTBP.
lame!

The price will tell...

Lol, the 9600GT actually bested the HD3870 in a couple of those game tests, if they turned AA on, which many of us do, it is likely that the 9600 would have matched the 3870 in all the tests, the speculation is it will retail below current 256MB 8800GT prices, now just like this article..........thats just speculation but if it is true, we could see a 3870 competitor for the price of a little over the 3850 or thereabouts, it's all good for our wallets.........the more competition out there the better for us!

My guess is however, too good to be true!

Maybe it will be 250$ like the 8800GT lol I hope its under 200$ so I can sell my 3850 and get that cause it will do better with AA like you said.

 

[cdawall]

and since its a nv midrange card the previous cards have told us anything it will oc like a beast

 

[DaMulta]

I wonder where the 2900GT is when compared to this card. It's only 120.USD.

 

[ShadowFold]

The 2900GT sucks :|

 

[snuif09]

^i tought 2900GT was crap
