ATI 4850 benchmark - Page 6

Lacus · 25th Jun 2008, 07:53 PM

it uses same core but slightly different design on the board. 4870 uses GDDR5 while the 4850 uses GDDR3

Back on topic where are the temps and a second set of benchmarks on this 4850?

Nvidia's GeForce GTX 280 graphics processor - The Tech Report - Page 16
Nvidia's GeForce 9600 GT graphics processor - The Tech Report - Page 9

9600GT - 197W
9800GTX - 247W

9800GTX only consumes around ~50W more than a 9600GT under load, I really don't understand how it can be "very inefficient", considering 9800GTX is much faster than a 9600GT

8800GTX is a different story though.

Just look at how much faster 8800GTS is, let alone 9800GTX.

On inefficient I meant the 65nM G92 on the 8800 series Max sorry we got our GTX's mixed up. And I think we did a few times on this thread

It's the 8800GTX I was referring too I never liked the 88xx series thats why I never bought one. And with the 98xx series starting off with the same 65nM G92 that series kinda turned me off too ... but the 9800GTX is a different puppy

THX for the links and did some reading myself on the new 55nM G92 and like what I saw. I would still like to see some temps and other numbers on 4850 and 4870 I was really disappointed in the 38xx series but these are looking good so far

You are really confused! LOL! 8800GTX uses G80 core, not G92.

Only 8800GT, 8800GTS 512MB, and 9800GTX uses G92 core. This is why G92 is a lot better than G80, in terms of power consumption.

There's only 2 types of 9800 series, 9800GX2 (which is dual G92 so power consumption will be roughly 2x higher), and 9800GTX. There has never been an inefficient G92 core, except the new 55nm G92, which I think is crap.

Hmmmm you can see I haven't used NV cards for 5 years

On G92 thats cool on the 8800GTX I saw issues with heat on Crysis O/Cing here on ARP. I have still out benched 8800GTS and GT on better systems than mine. Anyhew will run some benchmarks tonight and post em up

8800GTS 512MB is my first Nvidia card.

lol

goldfries · 26th Jun 2008, 09:41 AM

my first nV card was RivaTNT2 NV5!

or was the the M64 version, i think it was. damn. the years fly.

next NV card was Geforce 256, then the 3rd NV card was 6800 Ultra.

iModAMD · 26th Jun 2008, 09:55 AM
