MSI Neo2 @ NV35

Terminator XP · June 1st, 2003

When i saw MSI got high mark when combined with Radeon 9800 Pro, i test MSI Neo2 it with NV35 (nVidia GeForce FX 5900 Ultra) i stole it at my friends house(but he knows it) i found GFX did reallyy high mark compared to Radeon 9800 Pro.
I give my computer specification
80.0GB Seagate Barracuda ATA V (7200rpm)
1024MB Dual-Channel DDR-266 RAM
48x24x48x Internal TDK Cyclone Second Edition (Black Panel
ThermalTake X Casing (400 Watt) so 'mahal'(expensive for me)

I give a clue:
3dMark2001: 20%
3dMark2003 Patch 330 applied: 26%
approximately only

So it's produced higher 3DMark than Radeon 9800 ?

nVidia cheated in their new drivers anyway , so the results given by 3dMark 2003 arent very reliable .

Moved.
The 5900U is known to be the fastest card out.
The 'hacks' nVidia implemented in all honesty simulate better the way games render, but hey.

maybe you could tell us what score you got? I'm curious. And what P4 you used on the MSI Neo2

So, now FGX 5900 Ultra is the king? How bout Radeon 9800 Pro 256? What's the difference between 128 and 256, as I know there is no speed different.

Chinoz · June 2nd, 2003

Difference in VRAM?
IIRC, the Neo2 is i875 right?

The 256 has more vRam. That's it.
The 5900U is king by a not insignificant margin now. nVidia dropped DDR2 in favour of DDR with double hte bandwidth (256-bit rather than 128-bit)

If you use 3dmark to determine anything but synthetic performance on Generic Code, then you are making bad purchase decisions

3dmark 2003 is a waste of time unless you have dx9 card or you like the visual efects used
