glbenchmark 3.0

The reason the offscreen tests won't run on the Evo 3D is probably because it has a qualcomm-soc? We ran the test on several phones and it run fine on a lot of phones, save the ones with a qualcomm-soc. Allready mailed them asking why this is and if it will be fixed. If you check Anand's latest...

First retail 6870 photo; now includes full Chinese leaks and Guru3D review discussion

Shaders aren't the only thing in the equation to determine the amount of flops. Guess what else is involved? Clockspeeds. Guess how much higher the clockspeeds of the HD 6870 are, and how much less shaders it has? So in other words, there's no new architecture in the front end. I'm not 100&#37...

First retail 6870 photo; now includes full Chinese leaks and Guru3D review discussion

How do you figure there's now 2 ultra threaded dispatch processors? Just because the block has been chopped in half compared to the one big block Cypress had? Also, where does it say the instruction / constant cache have been doubled? Imo it's just a different way of showing how it works...

5870 crossfire vs factory overclocked gtx 460 in SLi. Hardocp review

Totaly weird review. Although the GTX 460 is pretty awesome and SLI scales really good with it, in my own very recent benchmarks, a HD 5970 pretty much beats two GTX 460's in every single game, except for Far Cry 2. Also, the reason HardOCP might have problems with AvP is because they could be...

can ati cards run 3d content

AMD can run 3D-content to a certain point. See http://www.iz3d.com/driver and http://www.iz3d.com/download/releases/AMD%20and%20iZ3D%20Team%20Up%20Final.pdf

Recommend a triple monitor video card?

That card only has 1 dvi and 1 hdmi? Also, most nvidia videocards can only put out 2 signals. For 3 you'd have to be looking at some very expensive quadro-cards. Or you simply have to run 2 cards. But does your motherboard have 2 pci-e slots?

Trouble finding motivation to finish Baldur's Gate 1. Switch to BG2?

I'd like to know this as well. Or at least some good ones, because there is so much out there, it makes my head spin.

Voltage baseline for 5870 speeds on the 5970?

I suppose you made a typo, but standard voltage for a HD 5870 isn't 1,625. I've seen different voltages (from reviewsample to retailsample) and they ranged somewhere in between 1,15 en 1,18v.

CS:S strategies and getting good?

How rampant are cheaters in CS nowadays? And from what I remember, recoil can be controlled, can it not? I saw movies of people spraying with ak's, but getting all bullets close to each other with very little spread. I did love CS for sure, I recently played it at Computex, but some girl was...

AMD Llano: Mobile discrete GPU killer?

That's the thing, they prioritize gaming. I know many people who buy a laptop with a decent cpu, a screen with a certain size/resolution, and a decent harddisk, because that's what they absolutely need. I can think of two people right now who play only older games, or who have tried installing...

Asus Ares tested and disected

http://tweakers.net/reviews/1691/1/ares-de-god-van-de-videokaarten-inleiding.html Check it out. Overclocked to 950MHz quite easily. With some more volts it will go higher still.

anything wrong with getting this HIS 5850???

Haven't tried yet. Will try to tomorrow... I do find it annoying that it doesn't allow higher clocks then 775MHz, unless you use the ATI GPU tool... Don't think it will do extra voltage, but I'll check with Afterburner... For easy overclocking, I'd recommend the Asus HD 5850 TOP

SLI problems - EVGA 8800gt's

World in Conflict is very cpu-limited (the minima, with the atombomb don't budge much unless you use a significantly faster cpu, like a Core i7 @ 3.0GHZ). Then again, the benchmark in WiC isn't very good to determine how gameplay will be. I also wouldn't worry about 3DMark06. Toyota claims a...

Nothing wrong with it. I tested it, and it's pretty quiet and the fan can be adjusted.

nV goes for high frequency with 256 shaders for GF104

Wasn't all of this allready known? What they probably mean, is that the CUDA transistors that are now pretty much dedicated to double precision, are now also able to aid in rendering graphics. I'd take this with a grain of salt though...
