What is best among these? 440 or 5570?

[pasanwc]

I have a Gigabyte HD 5570 but it is a latest model that has a Turks LE GPU instead of old Redwood PRO. And my friend has an EVGA GT 440 but it's also a bit cut down version from the original. So my question is what is better according to these information below? 440 or 5570?

My previous thread related to my 5570 is here>> http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/forum2.php?config=tomshardwareus.inc&cat=33&post=363186&page=1&p=1&sondage=0&owntopic=1&trash=0&trash_post=0&print=0&numreponse=0&quote_only=0&new=0&nojs=0

GT 440 would be better.

I also thought that..But my 5570 has 320 SPUs and 440 has 96 cuda cores..so does it make any sense?

 

[Sunius]

What makes any sense? Stop looking at specs and look at benchmarks.

Let's see, GTA 4 minimum settings:

GT 440 DDR3 is on par with HD 5570 GDDR5. Since you've got GDDR3 HD 5570, GT 440 DDR3 will be faster.

No you were wrong mate...look again carefully.
Benchmark says GT 440 DDR3 got 49.3 FPS and 5570 512 DDR5 got 50.81...
The setup which is on the top of the list is GT 440 SLI which has 79.38 FPS

And according to this 5570 would be better than 440 http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-7.html

But my 5570 is a different cut down version so I can think GT 440 is better anyway

50.81 and 49.3 fps seems like on par to me. And that's HD 5570 with GDDR5. With GDDR3 it will be significantly slower.

Except for the fact that they tested it with the GDDR5 version, which is significantly faster than the DDR3 version you have.

 

[pasanwc]

Yes you guys are correct...but I don't want to discuss about that benchmark I just want the answer for my question which is 'What is better among the cards in those snapshots I showed you?'...They both are cut down versions of their actual ones so I need answer for that.

 

[Deemo13]

Well the GT440 would be quicker than the 5570. Not by much I would think, but it is nevertheless.
