Default Affiliate Reviews: The GeForce 7800 GTX!


Hard to find an affiliate who doesn't have a review on this today. We got 'em in three languages, too! So, without further ado, here they are in the order received:

This means that you can get the fastest gaming card at the moment while nVidia continues to develop and work with game producers to make SLi work the way it should.

That question has become increasingly less relevant as graphics chips have gained the ability to process a rich set of datatypes, including floating-point numbers that can be very accurate representations of light and color. In fact, since the introduction of the Radeon 9700, graphics processors have been capable of rendering just about any sort of effect one might wish to see. The big question now is: can it pump out that sort of tasty eye candy in real time, or is it just a slideshow? There are still some important secondary questions about the arrangement of computational resources on the GPU and how they impact performance, but at the end of the day, a graphics processor is now judged by its real-world computational power.

The performance of the new G70 core is impressive in all aspects and the new transparency antialiasing is a welcome addition to NVIDIA suite of image quality enhancements. With HDR improvements as well, the 7800 GTX is going to be a good GPU selection for some time to come.

That's only some £70 more than a 6800 Ultra (15%), for a rough 40% increase in performance, should your wallet be up to the task.

Aufgrund der ziemlichen Kurzfristigkeit der Teststellung sind in diesem Artikel jedoch erst einmal "nur" die üblichen Spiele-Benchmarks zu finden, sämtliche theoretischen Benchmarks und diverse andere Messungen werden wir in einem zweiten Benchmark-Artikel voraussichtlich zum Wochenende hin nachreichen. Die Technik des neuen G70-Chip wird zudem ausführlich ein extra Technik-Artikel abhandeln, welcher jedoch erst nach Klärung einiger noch offener Fragen in ein bis zwei Tagen erscheinen wird.

Read on for all the juice on nVidia's new bad boy as we take a close look at the specifications and the card itself along with what some of nVidia's partners have already told us.

Bit Tech makes up for their lateness (cause we didn't have enough to read) by providing not one but two reviews:

The second article is a gaming-focused review of the 7800 GTX, including SLI, benchmarked using Battlefield 2, Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, Far Cry, Doom 3, Half Life 2, and NFS: Underground 2. 3DMark is nowhere in sight!

Default Looks Awesome!

Despite some of the alleged clock speed issues, I will likely buy this card with my new system that I am buying this summer. What does ATI have releasing to compete with this card? I've been a bit lazy lately with keeping up with video card stuff (it also makes me wish I mad emore money )
