Yeah,ATi always like that.When they launch new card they never have a perfect driver. So cstkl1, Any DX10 game benchmark? Looks like you are the first 3870 owmner in LYN.  How much you bought it? |

Ugh... [H]ardOCP. Don't trust those nVidia shills.
I thought I saw a higher 3DMark score with a simillar CF rig. Care to turn Overdrive on? From what I've heard, the card is very cool and silent. 100% is of course noisy, but normal use it should be very silent. |

No actually,
AA is now normal, aka no big performance drops!  At 8XAA it's faster than the 8800GT.  |

Should've rephrased that,
"Its hit in 8XAA is smaller than the 8800GT". At stock clocks the 3870 loses a little for now (might be drivers) but OC 5-10% and you're even lol. Put on 8XAA, and 5% is enough to top the 8800GT I think. This post has been edited by X.E.D: Nov 13 2007, 07:30 PM |
