Graphic Card rated 5.7 faster than one rated 5.9

[MerleG]

Hello,
My 8800GT died after 4 years and 4 months.
I replaced it with a ASUS HD 6670 2GB and
it has better frame rates in FSX. Why is the
rating less in my computer?

I would not pay any attention to Windows ratings. Who knows where they get there numbers from?

According to the GPU hierarchy chart, the 2 GPU's should be very similar in speed. They are on the same tier. http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-7.html

With that, you can expect them to trade blows from time to time. Differences in VRAM size may also play a part, depending on the game.

I know 2GB is better than 512MB on the card. FSX is very smooth now.
I think that 5.7 vs 5.9 would be faster but we all know there is a lot
of games played. (pun intended). Thanks
