Well finally a working release of the Geforce FX....and only like 4-5 months late(computer time = 40-50 years). Its overclocked at 500MHZ is using ddrII 128 bit with clocked at 1 GHZ. And the result?
It edges out the radeon 9700 pro clocked at only 325 mhz by a very small margin. And actually loses in some benchmarks. one word SAD
Its super hot even with the huge cooler loud as a vacuum cleaner(i'm not joking) and cannot be overclocked cuz is too hot. BTW i'm planning to use their cooler as a turbo for my car. That should put me in the 9's 1/4 mile.
On the other hand the radeon can be overclocked easily to 400mhz even with the normal cooler. It isn't even using DDRII and with a mem of only 600mghz gets almost 20 mb/s cuz is using 256 bit memory compared to only 16mb/s on the nvidia with 1ghz ddrII. And btw radeon will have ddr II soon. So that plus faster clock = bye bye geforce.
Oh and btw the radeon is using much simpler tech so lower price.
