Vice Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Interesting test results. It's about the performance of a 7800GTX from what I can estimate from the 3DMark score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randolph Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Thread title is wrong? Card says 8600 GTS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
temur Posted April 5, 2007 Author Share Posted April 5, 2007 Yup. Doesn't look too appealing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethos Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 No no, that's just wrong! A GPU today is supposed to be insanely overpriced, require a nuclear reactor to run, need to run at 240* and not be able to fit inside a bus. We can't have these cheap "in the middle" solutions!
