At the beginning of October, ATI and NVIDIA grappled in a new round of fighting as the new-generation RADEON X1800 XT 512MB from the “red” team challenged the GeForce 7800 GTX which had been unrivalled for over three months. ATI won that round and regained the champion’s belt, but for how long? Today we are going to tell you if the newly released GeForce 7800 GTX 512 brings any changes into the rankings in the top-end 3D graphics sector.

This scene doesn’t suit for comparing today’s top-end graphics cards since they all have the same speed in it. The speed never goes below 85fpsirrespective of the test mode or resolution, which should be more than enough for any player.


The Metallurgy map offers us some more useful info. The GeForce 7800 GTX 512 is 35-37% faster than the RADEON X1800 XT 512MB. The gap may have been wider, but the new graphics card from NVIDIA is limited by the CPU performance even in 1600x1200 resolution and cannot give you more than 130fps. But as you understand, this is more than enough for comfortable play.
