Aquamark3 Performance

Even with the image quality issues cleared up, we still don't think this is a good benchmark to try to judge performance with future games. That being said, beating these scores is going a little difficult unless your system is very nicely overclocked.

 

 

As we can see, the 52.14 drivers show a vast improvement, but they still fall just short of ATI. Honestly, if anyone actually played this game, there wouldn't be a significant difference between any of these three cards, and all of them would be very good choices for playing this particular DX9 game.

    #3, go away you fanboy. There was absolutely no IQ difference between the CAT 3.7 and 52.14 drivers.

    i'm sure intel will be happy to hear that you 'upgraded' your prescott to an FX.

    Um...

    Why was there nothing noting the difference between nVidia and ATI's in the IQ section? nVidia looks absolutely horrid compared to the ATI.

    I saw more opinions in this article leaning towards Nvidia, especially around the Tomb Raider benchmarks. More specifically, starting with the page regarding compilers. I liked this articles, but there could have been less opinionated viewpoints on this. Also, it might be better if we get names of authors with what they typed, so we know who typed what, because some of this sure didn't sound like something Mr. Shimpi has written in the past...
