All Your Video Card Comparisons

post #1 of 84

Thread Starter 
Since Im kinda bored, and dont feel like studying for finals, Id thought Id be nice and try to put together lots of GPUZ charts for those wondering about video cards, when compared to one another. I asked a few members to set their OC'd monsters to stock speeds so we could look at them in their original settings. Hopefully if you're thinking about buying a card of such awesomeness, which ever it may be, these charts can help you make up your mind about performance and deciding the best bang for your buck.

Yeah, it's weird how GPU-Z reads the Quadro 2500m as 8 pixel/8 vertex...it should be 24pixel/8vertex (same config as the 7900GTX)..

haha thanks, I actually laughed and my roommate stared me down. I still have a lot to learn though.

And btw the clean awesome look is Alienguise which are skins from Alienware to turn the User Interace from Fisher Price to a clean Vista look.

Alright - is there a way to increase pixel fill rate and texture fill rate?? Or how are these deterimined??

I am comparing two different cards - a 7900gtx and a 7950 gtx.

Core and Memory clocks change those values.

Not on the 7950gtx I am using right now. It's signficantly slower than the 7900gtx I had. It also seems to have some strange artifacting going on, even at stock clocks. Sometimes the screen just goes crazy and I have to manual shutdown. Wondering if this card has some problems. I'll see if I can attach a GPUZ for reference.


Edit - yes, I have tried several different drivers so far. I'm just thinking the card isn't up to snuff.

To follow up - I have found out that GPUZ 1.5 shows 2D ROP's, pixel and texture fill rates for some reason. GPUZ 1.1 shows the correct figures in these fields - so apparently that part of this card works properly. The only thing I have found out about this 7950gtx is that it is running very hot idliing around 70 to 75. I will be applying some AS5 to hopefully fix this problem.

A very respected source - I don't think someone was trying to con me. So far this card runs overly hot. Right now it is idling at 76, for instance.

Using Powermizer is a good way to get your idle temps down. I also have my fans running on slow speed all the time, sort of like a desktop. I sleep better at night knowing that I'm not slow-cooking my components. Fans are cheaper than GPU's and CPU's. I idle at 40C.
