One 2 many COMs in there.

The brand new summer 2006 VGA Charts are here! Compare 60 single and dual graphics solutions in seven game benchmarks.

Is this link supposed to have all those Graphic cards?

http://www23.tomshardware.com/graphics.html
There is under 40 cards in that list on my browser (FF 1.5.0.6) to choose from (is it just my browser???).
All the nVidia 7600 cards are missing for example. Are they available somewhere else?

I think its a BOT that posts the articles... thats why it keeps screwing up hahaah.

 

[chimrichalds]

It seems like it hasn't changed. The 7600s and 7900s are still missing.

I've wondered what's been up with this chart. I haven't seen any 76xx or 79xx cards when referring to this over the last few months, or today. Funny how I can see all the top end ATi cards.

 

[spongebob]

Not all the high end ATI cards. It goes from X1900 AiW to X1900XTX. No XT or GTO?

 

[martin_san]

Hmm, I am kinda missing the x1900gt cards. I am in the process of buying a comp and I would love to be able to compare the x1900gt to the new x1900xt 256meg version. Well, would like to see any test of the x1900xt 256meg cards. Any clue when any test will appear?

 

[djtodd]

Agreed, these charts are totally one-sided, and even then lack several popular options.

How about some 79* series cards in there buddy, or does ATI have you in their pocket?

 

[spongebob]

It looks more to me like a botched post. Most of the benchmark applications mentioned are missing (HL2:E1, Oblivion, Prey, etc.).

 

[RedZone]

agreed, not a conspiracy and no-one is in anybodies back pocket. Just crappy posting/linking.

I agree & emailed the author earlier this morning to give him a "heads-up". I assume he is scrambling to get the correct charts online.

What's up with Toms these past few months letting major oversights like that get past? This is the 2nd time Nvidia cards got shafted in a VGA chart. Unacceptable. :?

 

[sojrner]

did you miss something man? all cards got shafted. no 7900s from Nv, no 1900xt's from ati and so-on. It is not just against Nv here. The whole chart is hosed. It looks like it just has not been updated at all.

Are you freaking blind? There's 7950GX2 on the chart, and it sucks like I already said a thousand times, it lost to a single 7900GTX and of course the X1900XT.

 

[Natecannon]

No, I'm not freaking blind. The chart must have been updated... dont go being a dickhead.

There is a x1900gt on the chart for god sake, please check it more carefully, and the x1900xt 256mb havent been out yet, ATI just announced it, it will hit the shelf on september 4th.

 

[reaper]

Well, then dont go check first handed without rechecking it and then go said conspriacy crap. But the weird thing is that just several days ago, THG did a review between 1950XTX (better than X1900XTX) with the 7950GX2 and the 7950GX2 beat the 1950XTX, now, in this chart, the 7950GX2 showed up to be a losing card (even to a X1800XT in some games). Why is there a big difference in two review? Is it because of AA and AF difference?

 

[Natecannon]

What the hell are you talking about? I looked at it a few times this morning and nothing changed... now it changed you come in here guns blazing telling me I'm blind... and on top of that stupid for buying a gx2. Go to hell man... you've got problems.

I along with many people checked it many times and it was NOT updated.

 

[rezident]

How is it that the X1900s won every benchmark but in the "Performance" option it says the 7950 is tops?

Am I viewing this wrong, I'm a bit of a new tech n00b. Been awol a while.

Well now it's updated, and 7950GX2 still sucks, Quad SLI is even worse.

I never said conspiracy... I said shennanigans.

Now that you mentioned it, X1900XTX lost frames to a 6800GT?????? HAHAHAHA, that's some awesome review.
