The second test fully employs the graphics cards’ geometry-processing capabilities, and the PowerColor X800 GT rises to the occasion by leaving the GeForce 6800 and the GeForce 6600 GT behind in the “pure speed” mode and doing no worse than them in the “eye candy” mode.

The PowerColor card looks well in the third test, too. It is no slower than the GeForce 6800 in the “pure speed” mode – the high GPU frequency makes up for the availability of only 8 pixel pipelines. At the “eye candy” settings the PowerColor is less active, yet it keeps on the same level with the GeForce 6600 GT.
