Quote from Beyond3D forum sums it all up nicely.

Was wondering when you'd show up. But i can't say i'm surprised by the results either lol.

The drivers are still a bit rough, but so are NV's. I don't expect the situation to change much over time.

oh my, i dont read russians.....

OMG seems like G80 pawns R600 kau kau...
really pity AMD

i can't read russian language

like ikanayam said, drivers are not smoothened out yet, well like they ever was a smooth driver from either ati or NV >___>""

BUT!!!!!!
NV has had a loong head start compared to ATI for driver smoothing and optimizations, so we have yet to see the full potential of either cards in dx10 to be demonstrated

Have they really? NV didn't have a vista driver working till WAY after the cards were launched, and even now they are still buggy as hell. So if someone says AMD has a lot of potential in the drivers, i'll say it's the same for NV.

since i've used both card, i can say AMD vista driver is more matured than nvidias'..

yala, thats why i said we have yet to see the full potential of either cards in dx10 to be demonstrated coz both are just as buggy, but ati drivers(atleast for catalyst 7.6) has a bug in games. But either NV or ati dx10 cards are not fully utilized to run dx10 games YET, due to driver bugs =/



try this, play fear and do the ingame bench, and then come back out and rename fear.exe to fearme.exe or whatever u want (dot) exe, u will see a 5~10% fps increase in average fps from the bench. its a bug in catalyst optimization code =/

Anyway, just wait hot DX10 titles come out this September. From user xperience and review then decide on what card better to play DX10 games.

latest catalyst 7.7 release already !
i cannot read russian , but i can read picture !
omg , ati look falling behind a lot !
may be just like u guy all said .. wait for better driver

even 8500GT pawns HD2600/2400 in both low/high setting. Damn, this card worth it.

8500GT is a slow card , dude . 16 steam processors ( lowest sp in nVidia 8 Series family ) .
Even 8600Gt is not fast enough to play real DX10 games

whatever, it pawns HD2400/2600, so who pawned who?

Btw, there are three lower cards in G8 series, 8400/8300/8200. Get it straight.

8500GT is a slow card , dude . 16 steam processors ( lowest sp in nVidia 8 Series family ) .
Even 8600Gt is not fast enough to play real DX10 games

I sense some fanboyism.....

i sense too . those r expect in high quality game play , go for better gc ...
