Gore? gibs?

Y would u want to?

Geez, I saw an awesome increase in fps from my gf2pro to my gf4 ti4200 :/ wtf is a gf3 ultra?

[Validuz]

When I got a GF4 Ti4600 and tried it out on my system, there was only a 10-20fps increase.

[ChrisMOG]

er uh, yeah.... I /guess/ the gf3 ultra would be the gf3 ti500, since its the fastest gf3 available. It is also the exact same price as a gf4 ti4200 (atleast on pricewatch).

[Validuz]

Btw, the GF2 Pro and Ultra are not the same. HUGE DIFFERENCE

[ChrisMOG]

Not when my pro was clocked at the same core and memory speed as an Ultra :/

[Validuz]

Its not the core speed that matters as much as the chipset. Take an AMD for example:

P4 may/does have the fastest (MHz wise) CPU out. But an AMD thats trailing by 600MHz is right along side of it performance wise.

One thing that people think and its a very common misconception, is that the more cycles it can process the faster it is, but what if the other chipset can can process several ______ at a time...

omg, im too tired to remember the wording here ;p

anyways, someone finish this for me..
Gnite,

hehe, except for one little thing, all gf2s had the same core..some just ran at a faster clockspeed (although the gf2ti pro had a smaller die core I believe) and anyways on the gf2 the limited in fps was the memory speed, which like $5 in memory sinks can let you hit like 520 on a good quality card :/


And yes the p4 does have the worst core ever, but luckily they have the extra gig or so of mhz to make up for it

[Validuz]

Well, I hope from work, and im forum whoring already...

Ive had the GF2 Pro, MX II, GTS, and now Ultra II, and the Ultra beats the shit of out all 3 of them.

Pro is crap.

To suddenly jump back on subject (I know... sorry folks, you can continue right after this. ):

We don't need gibs. All it is is eye candy, and trust me... We have more than enough of that to go around.
