I find it very strange that you in Graphics Card Hierarchy charts (the http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-car...) will find the ATI hd 4550 below the Geforce 6600 and 6800

I haven't find a single charts proven this
for instance:

The charts are old, who knows what drivers have done since they were last updated? Not to mention the system configurations would be totally different.

The hierarchy charts are for alot of the time rough guesses based on 3dmark for many of the lower end parts I would imagine.

Either you trust the author's judgement or you don't.

So you think this is to old: http://www.tomshardware.com/charts/gaming-graphics-card...[3543]=on&prod[3541]=on

note its from q3 2009?

And do you really mean that a Nvidia Geforce 6800 Ultra will perform better than a ATI HD 4550???
Like it shows in http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-car... from April 19, 2010

Bevause of new drivers to the G6800

I hope that the people who made the charts have took into account for system configuration - otherwise they are not useful
