According to dell we already know the frequencies of video card geForce 8800 Ultra are (650/2160 GHz), the announcement of this last, according to our data , will take place in the middle of May. Since OEM- producers sometimes prefer to adhere conservative frequencies to control the energy consumption, the characteristic Of geForce 8800 Ultra can be changed. For example, our associate Erik Larsson report that the frequencies Of geForce 8800 Ultra will be equal to 675/2350 MHz.. As far as the shader domain frequency is concerned, it will be increased from 1350 to 1550 MHz. It was also reported that this video card will be equipped with cooler which resembles to the cooling system used in geForce 7800 GTX.
As reported associate , video card radeon HD 2900 XTX will operate at frequencies 800/2200 MHz. Let us recall that Radeon HD 2900 XT works at frequencies 742/1650 MHz. Elder video card has 1 Gb memory type GDDR-4, low-end is satisfied with 512 mb GDDR-3 memory.
Associate from fudzilla possessed the data about geForce 8800 Ultra speed and Radeon HD 2900 XTX in test 3DMark'06 with processor core 2 Extreme QX6800 (2.93 GHz) and drivers version catalyst 8.361 RC4.
- GeForce 8800 Ultra (650/2160 MHz) - > approximately 14 000 points;
- Radeon HD 2900 XTX (800/2200 MHz) - > approximately 13 500 points;
- Radeon HD 2900 XT (845/1990 MHz) - > 14 005 points.
If we consider overclock, that the r600 version with 512 mb GDDR- 3 memory can prove to be faster than the version with 1 Gb GDDR-4 memory with some overclock . Many will prefer to save their money. in addition , hardly someone will decide to overpay for GeForce 8800 Ultra with 500 points advantage in 3DMark'06. For sure, the default frequencies Of geForce 8800 Ultra can be increased, but here about we deal with ($999) video card.
Associates report that the tests indicated were executed with new revision radeon HD 2900 XTX, which already possesses the improved speed. As you see, in the concrete test overclock allow the Radeon HD 2900 XT to approach Radeon HD 2900 XTX. Related Products :
