Performance in Synthetic Benchmarks

Futuremark 3DMark05

Since 3DMark05 defaults to 1024x768 resolution without full-screen antialiasing, the GeForce 8800 GTS 320MB expectably turns in the same overall score as the ordinary version of the card with 640MB of graphics memory. The overclocked version of GeForce 8800 GTS supplied by MSI boasts a pretty-looking round score of 13,800 points.

As opposed to the overall scores we obtained in the benchmark’s default mode, we run each separate test in the eye candy mode. This does not affect performance of the GeForce 8800 GTS 320MB, though. It is not much slower than the GeForce 8800 GTS even in the hardest third test. The MSI NX8800GTS OC Edition is everywhere second best behind the GeForce 8800 GTX, proving that the overall scores are correct.
