Futuremark 3DMark05

At the default frequencies the N6600 GT/TD is rewarded a higher score than the RADEON 9800 XT in 3DMark05. Overclocking helps the ASUS card to beat the GeForce 6800. Let’s see where this result comes from.

The first test from the 3DMark05 suite looks like a regular 3D shooter. The N6600 GT/TD is already faster than the RADEON 9800 XT and gives way only to the two much more expensive cards: GeForce 6800 GT and RADEON X800 PRO. Overclocking gives a nice speed bonus to the ASUS product.

3DMark05 doesn’t support full-screen anti-aliasing in resolutions above 1024x768 on graphics cards equipped with less than 256 megabytes of memory. Anyway, the results of the N6600 GT/TD are very high even here. Overclocking increases the frame rate almost to the level of the GeForce 6800 GT.
