Mid-Range ATi RV670 beats Nvidia G92

In a report by the inquirer, it was revealed that ATI's upcoming mid-range graphics card code-named RV670 openly beat the G92 in 3Dmark06. And it also claims the sub $250 GPU scored close to 8800Ultra in 3dmark06.

The RV670 is a beast, it has the same number of stream processors as the R600 (320) for like 1/2 the price, too bad I already got a 2900XT.

Can't wait to update my old 1950XTX card =)

At least until a few of the 3rd party reviewers try it in game (3D Mark isn't everything), then if it gives this type of performance BUY BUY BUY, however ATI have had a habit of saying "we have got this new card available" then not making them available at all to the consumer

mighty_douche6047d ago

im currently building 2 pc's for friends and was going to go for the 8800gts as they are on a bit of a budget but this card sounds very tempting.

ShiftyLookingCow6047d ago

as you probably know, nvidia loves to release(sometimes paper launch) their cards on November, not sure about AMD.

Charlie26886047d ago

This only reminds me of the initial claims by ATI that the Radeon HD 2900XT was a direct competitor to the GeForce 8800GTX and was technically superior and we ALL know what happened when we actually started testing them with games

I just hope this is not another of ATIs paper launch that end up being killed by real life testing...or drivers

Blood_Spiller6047d ago

2900XT performs at par or better than the 8800GTX in most games using modern engines (Read: Unreal Engine 3) and it also runs the Crysis beta better than the 8800GTX.

Charlie26886047d ago

After a small research after reading your post I found some interesting results

UE3 powered games: used example Bioshock runs smoother on the 2900XT on XP (performance goes to hell on Vista) than the 8800GTX

other engine powered games: used example World in Conflict the 8800GTX BUTCHERS (to the point its not funny, even the GTS beats it) the 2900XT

I am looking for more video card performance comparisons using the UE3, cuz I have seen performance spikes before with the 2900XT, for example Quake 4 runs a LOT better on the 2900XT than the 8800GTX but in almost ALL of the other game in the same test it ran close or worse than the 8800GTS

still the #1 complain of ALL the 2900XT owner I know is poor driver optimisation like the one of about 1 or 2 months that actually made the card run slower

Blood_Spiller6047d ago

Check out the results for Rainbow 6: Las Vegas and Medal of Honor: Airborne, both use the UE3 and the 2900XT performs better in them. For the record World in Conflict doesn't use the UE3.

Fallout 4's 'next gen' update is over 14 gigs, breaks modded saves, & doesn't change much at all

We were expecting problems with mod support, but there are a lot of other issues.

Wow what the actual hell 🤣🤣🤣

just_looken6h ago

This is why you get the GOG version on gog you can select the version of the game to download.

On pc fallout 4 fallout new vegas and skyrim are all broken on steam because they all got the same "next gen" update.

Skyrim dec 2023
https://www.pcgamer.com/sky...

Can not find new vegas but anyone that modded it knows the script extender there was also broken

Valkyrye4h ago

Not accidental, they want modders to stop modding their older games to force them to mod Shitfield.

just_looken3h ago

There doing the same on starfield with a mods store and blocking mods

There goal is like blizzard and what they did with fallout 76 you make mods they can sell and you become a slave.

On skyrim they have "trusted" mod devs now basically a badge that lets your mod on the store you get a crumb of the sale when someone buys it.

lol to the disagrees, the last Skyrim update broke mods too. They've been trying to kill mods to monetize them in creation club for years, it's not a stretch that they purposely put out patches just to break free mods.

porkChop4m ago

The disagrees are from people who have common sense. They aren't trying to kill mods. Most mods for any game will break with a new update because they rely on files/code that have been changed. This isn't new. Even with Bethesda this would happen way before the creation club. Mod support is literally one of the things that got Bethesda to where they are, and they're one of the only devs that releases comprehensive mod tools for each of their games.

Over 14 GBs and doesn't change much at all? What? Taking up that much drive space for a pathetic 'remastering' is shameful.

Par for Bethesda.

Hopefully Microsoft will go back to the original story line and get away from that woke nonsense from the last Gears game Gears of Woke! But were talking about Microsoft so all the betting money is on more of the same woke nonsense.
