NVIDIA GeForce 2 GTS

The Voodoo5 5500 was at the top of our charts just two days ago, now it's time for NVIDIA to take over. Then again this isn't a very fair comparison because the GeForce 2 GTS will be priced around $100+ more than the Voodoo5 5500. At the same time, you can't argue with ~88 fps at 1280 x 1024 x 16, although the 44.9 fps in 32-bit color mode indicates that even the 5.3GB/s of memory bandwidth on the GeForce 2 GTS isn't enough.

We've always talked about 60 fps at 1600 x 1200, well is 57.6 fps close enough? While the sweet spot for the GeForce 2 GTS is still at 1024 x 768 x 32 or 1280 x 1024 x 16, the 1600 x 1200 scores once again illustrate exactly how powerful the GeForce 2 GTS is.

The only thing that could beat it here is the Voodoo5 6000.
