There seem to be nothing extraordinary about the results of the GeForce 8800 GTX, yet it provides the same performance as the more expensive Radeon X1950 XTX CrossFire subsystem. Let’s now also see how the new card will behave in open game scenes which are terribly heavy for any graphics solution.

The GeForce 8800 GTX provokes a small sensation here. It is the first time we see a single graphics card to deliver an average frame rate of near 60fps in 1920x1200! You cannot get that even on the Radeon X1950 XTX CrossFire tandem, not to mention weaker solutions. The min speed of the new card is high enough at about 30fps, so you are guaranteed a smooth gameplay.
