Good price point for this card and i like the design

The new W1z aviatar rocks... reminds me of Asterix and Obelix comics, thumbs up.

No mention of firm-mod for the card, I'm sure that's a prickly topic.

I don't understand, what does the score in 3dmark11 represent? is it the avg fps from one of the game tests or from all of the game tests ?

W1zzard · Feb 19, 2011, 09:31 AM

it's avg fps from all game tests, forgot to add "FPS" in the graph

are the plastic parts uv sensitive ?

Good card. But I wonder why Overclocked Performance is tested in call of duty. Please test gains from OC in more demanding games such as Metro 2033, Aliens vs. Predator etc, or there will be no need to compare. There is absolutely no difference between 101 and 114 fps.

When are you going to give up 1024*768 for all cards?
It's way outdated, and whoever has a monitor with such a resolution won't spend the money on most videocards you tested?
It is utterly useless to see how a 6850 (or GTX580) scores in 1024*768 , and it also eats your testing time.

hmmm as i see those cards dont love memory speed as the 58xx i can hit 5300 memory speed without issue while the 6850 can be barely stable @4800
