  1. The difference in the two is located in the Nature subtest. The GTX275 will give you roughly 1250-1300FPS whereas the 4890 might only give a 1100FPS score, which is like a difference of 3000p overall. Now, the 4890 (or ati) is known to be better in the system benchmarks (cars and lobbies), so normally you can make up for that loss a bit.

     

    The issue is that there might be a nature 'bug' with the Ph-2 just like there is with the Nehalem platform. Basically, the Core 2 Duo platform gives you a single GPU Nature of 1500FPS easily, whereas nehalem (even at high clocks) will have scaling issues past 1100-1150FPS. In this case, the 4890 is a better choice because of the better other subtests ... but I don't know if this is also the case for PH-2.

     

    Hope this helps

     

    this helps a ton! I really need to get to the point of finding these findings for myself. I guess the more you bench, the more you learn!

     

    Thanks master massman!

  2. I'll be throwing up my only processor I own on DICE soon. It happens to be a peach of a Deneb. + a modded GTX 275 and maybe I'll buy a 4890 and mod it too. Put them on DICE and see what I can grab!

     

    - I've been searching up reviews for 3D01 benchmarks between the GTX275 and 4890. I can't seem to find any concluding results as to the better card of the two for this choice of benchmark. Does anyone have a link or something that has a run down of these two cards within 3D01.
