Performance in Semi-Synthetic Benchmarks
Final Fantasy XI Official Benchmark 3
The numbers don’t need any comments: the PowerColor X850 XT Platinum Edition AGP hits the 6,000 points mark, while the GeForce 6800 Ultra can’t even get 5,500 points. This benchmark is designed in such a way that it requires the graphics card to have a high geometry processing speed and an efficient graphics memory subsystem.
Aquamark3
NVIDIA’s solutions used to be superior in Aquamark3 , but the RADEON X850 XT Platinum Edition with its sky-high operational frequencies changes this situation. The PowerColor wins this test, even though the GeForce 6800 Ultra is a mere 2-3fps behind.
As for the “eye candy” mode, RADEON X850 and X800 graphics cards have always been good here thanks to their efficient graphics memory subsystem.
