Synthetics

As always we’ll also take a quick look at synthetic performance, though as GTX 780 is just another GK110 card, there shouldn't be any surprises here.

As expected, firing up the 15th SMX and slightly increasing their clockspeed has further cemented NVIDIA’s hold on tessellation performnace.

Moving on, we have our 3DMark Vantage texture and pixel fillrate tests, which present our cards with massive amounts of texturing and color blending work. These aren’t results we suggest comparing across different vendors, but they’re good for tracking improvements and changes within a single product family.

Similarly, both texel and pixel fillrates as seen by 3DMark Vantage have increased. For texel fillrates the biggest benefit is the 15th SMX, while the pixel fillrates benefit from a mix of the higher GPU clockspeed and the increased memory bandwidth, further improving the peak performance of NVIDIA’s render backend.

    Can someone explain to me the logic of setting the game at 4x antialiasing while playing at 2560x1440?
    Because I can't find any.

    Looks like Anand is more Fan of a AMD rather than Nvidia i can understand that, but check the game bench markings on 780Ti after market cards it kills AMD 290x, i dont understand one thing if game bench marking is all about then i have GTX550ti 1 GB DDR5 runs ultra settings for Sniper Elite 3, Far Cry 3, AC3, AC4 , Sky Rim, the reason is simple and obvious that Nividia has & AMD dosent -- PhysX Software with the Chip on the card it self, i know many of you might be thinking hey even AMD cards utlize PhyX but remember not with right hardware. AMD is Good a CPUs not GPUs. one more interesting point in every 6 out of 10 games splash screen as "Nvidia the way it meant to be played" i have hardly seen any game that says AMD Radeon the way its meant to be played lol. Something to think about, in conclusion Nvidia is for a premium segment the pricing speaks, why else would you pay more price, because Nvidia is confident on their quality, on the other hand competitors go for desperate selling, which puts doubts in you brain.
