6600 vs 6800

[grego]

6800 > 6600 gt

What a simple statement, attempting to answer something he explicitly said he already knew about. Too bad that it's wrong.

6600 GT > 6800 is a bit more accurate. If you don't believe me, check out the benchs at toms. http://graphics.tomshardware.com/graphic/20050524/vga_charts-05.html

The same place also shows that the 6800 is better in this bench test.

But for the Priceerformance ratio 6600gt is better. When I brought my pc the 6600gt's were only just showing their faces, and I idn't have enough for the 6800gt, and wanted a high end card so I had to get the 6800.

The benchmark you cite is Doom 3 with a 6600GT using an HSI bridge chip to work on the AGP interface. Therefore, I doubt the user is recieving the cards full potential. The ones I cited were PCI-E, and much more current. The difference that drivers make over time cannot be overlooked.

I guess it depends on what benchmarks are used. They are pretty close.

AGP and PCI-E are same peformance.

The second article is probolly using reference 6600's instead of 500 \ 1000 cards
