"Who cares what the scores says if they are deceiving? I think those scores (3dmark03 in particular) are flawed and bloated (and always have been). He really should of gone with Nvidia. Every right minded person knows they are better."
The thing is - they ARENT generally decieving. I agree that this time, nvidia have come out on top. The thing is - if you have a high score in 3dmark03, and your FPS are bad in a game like doom 3, then theres obviously somehting weird happening. It cant be a faulty card cause then the 3dmark03 score would be bad. But there has to be a problem because the x800 cards are supposed to be able to play doom 3 at very high FPS on very high settings.
Yes nvidia has won in this round of vid cards, you dont need to keep saying it, but the x800 still pisses over all the previous generation video cards. so it should be performing good in the games it isnt. Hence there is a strange problem here......
