geforce 6 - 200? why so "new" stuff?

i´d like a geforce 2 - 6 competition or radeon 7000 - x1000

ok might be an interesting competition but not for my weak system

It's all about the S-L-I

Cool comp

Nice comp this month. But i would like to see also an CF comp next month.....Better for me because i've lots more of ATI cards here.

it's common knowledge massman can be bribed... so start to donate for your August compo

To avoid CPU dependence, why not use GPU score for this kind of challenge instead ot the ''P'' (Performance) score ?

 

 

This is your answer might make validation hard but it is getting pretty old having to sit these contests out. You guys have great contests and I could be wrong but I dont think you promote gulftown products. That being said another awsome contest that a gulftown chip will be needed for.

It will be interesting to see if this ends up the case...Currently Gulftown leads in 3 of 5 stages, 2nd in one and 3rd in the other. Gulftown sweep?

I don't think GT is that relevant for the geforce 6 or 7 stages. A decent SB is more than enough. Maybe the other 3, though?

It's vantage, I'd be surprised if it wasn't a GT sweep.

Very odd benchmark choice for what is theoretically a GPU contest IMO.

I guess the problem is that the older tests are influenced by the CPU anyway on the newer cards, especially in SLI.

 

A good SB won't be too bad, or what?

I'd like to see head-to-head comparisons here. I think Gulftown's performance effect on the overall score is overrated by many.

Yeah, I think most use them because they can, not because of the "insane advantage".

At certain mhz you have some gain with Gulftown.

It stopped at about 4200mhz with the 6800GS.

With 9800GX2 it was about 4800Mhz.

 

It's all in the card clocks and soldering skills

That's gain from the game tests, not the cpu score.

It's hard to argue with a 30% higher CPU score in vantage, all it has to do is match or get close to the GPU tests.

Anybody having any luck with 6-series cards on P67 chipset? I´ve tried everything and as soon as I install the second card I just get a black screen with a blinking thing like in DOS but without any text...

Will try on X58 later this week and hope for better luck.

 

Hey, it worked on X58!

 

Got it working on P67 also but i doesn´t help...

update...

Too bad Massman and Gamer failed to do a decent 285 score ( on card seems defect after voltmodding ) otherwise we could have nailed this one... congratz to all participants !!
