GeforceFX (vs. Radeon 9700 Pro) Benchmarks

Posted by Hemos on from the tide-goes-in-tide-goes-out dept.

Obiwan Kenobi writes "Looks like they guys at Maximum PC got lucky -- they scored the first ever GeforceFX benchmarks via an Alienware prototype machine. Two 'marks to notice: The Geforce FX scored 209 FPS in Quake 3 (1600x1200x32) and 41fps in 3dMark Game4 demo, while the Radeon 9700 Pro attained only 147fps in Quake 3 yet came back with 45fps in the 3dMark test. It seems that the GeforceFX is the clear leader in pure processing power, but in memory bandwidth the 9700 Pro is still king."

    All these improvements mean that any new laptop, includign iBooks can play Quake 3 in full res at a decent speed :)
    I guess that future Lan parties will be more and more wireless !

    Hey, as this is about graphic cards. What do you suggest me, an ATI Radeon or an nVidia GeForce ?

    I always go ATI cards but I'm thinking about changing to nVidia, what's best ? I'm using mostly Linux as OS !
