ATI Introduces DirectX 9 and PCI Express to Value Graphics Market: PowerColor X300SE Graphics Card Review (page 14)Category: Video [ 10/20/2004 | 04:34 PM ]
Version 1.4 pixel shaders appear in the second gaming test of 3DMark03. Specific rendering algorithms also increase the load on the graphics memory subsystem. This affects the results accordingly: all X300 series cards and the RADEON 9200 are out of competition here. The GeForce PCX 5750 with its UltraShadow technology and the RADEON X600 PRO with its relatively fast memory are on top.
We see the same situation in the third gaming test, but fast memory is of even bigger effect here as the RADEON X600 PRO surpasses the GeForce 5750.
The RADEON 9200 doesn’t take part in the fourth gaming test from the 3DMark03 suite as it lacks DirectX 9 support. The GPU frequency is vitally important for this test as it directly affects the speed of complex pixel shaders the test scenes abound in. That’s why we get a nice performance boost by overclocking the PowerColor X300 SE. <%BANNER[banner_468x30]%>
