    heh yeah i made it because people are always asking

    "What graphics card is best for me?"
    or
    "how bad will my cpu bottleneck this graphics card?"

    So with this table people can check how their CPU would perform with a card compared to with a different CPU ect ect.

    Why'd you change my Memory Clock to 800 (on my 8800)? I had it as 533, its ddr3, so effective of 1600. Was it just a mistake or am I not understanding something?

    SNGX1275, On ALL DDR ram, you half it, not divide by three just becuase its GDDR3, you still HALF it's effective rate.

    Lol... SNGX... DDR3 is still Double Data Rate ;) It's just Double Data Rate 3, the new technology of RAM. So it's still 800x2 not 533x3 :). For it to be 533x3 it would be TDR (Triple Data Rate). As long as it's called DDR it's always effective = actual x2.

    Oh, Cyph3r, this card is a hypermemory card, how should these be handled since they "share" system memory? Should the card's onboard memory what's reported, or the "hypermemory" amount? I posted the hypermemory amount, since I couldn't find the amount actually on the card (I believe it's 128mb after googling). This question would also apply to nvidia's "turbocache" cards.

    vnf4ultra I will put the hypermemory amount as thats a variable that can be changed and essentially effect the results.
