101 3D Graphics Cards Tested
Phantom69 writes "Ixbt Labs have spent a month testing 101 graphics cards in 14 different games. They used one reference system, and tested at two different resolutions (800x600 and 1024x768). The cards cover virtually all the major manufacturers ATi,
nVidia,
3dfx,
Matrox,
PowerVR and S3 from 1999-2004."
Tom's VGA Charts are pretty similar.
The best review he did a year or two ago was which card gave you the best bang for your buck (it was something like fps/$). The answer was the Radeon 9600XT, which is the card I bought. Wasn't the best, wasn't the fanciest, but it was a lot cheaper than the other cards, and I don't notice the difference between 60fps and 75fps.
Good quote, too many chars. Seriously, the slashdot 120 char limit sucks!
the GeForce 6800 Ultra 256MB, with the best price/performance going to the 6800 128MB. The 128MB version is $150 less than the 256 Ultra and only did significantly worse in one category of one game - Farcry 1024x768 with 2.0 shaders.
