The Dual Graphics Platform Battle, Part 1

Dual Graphics Benchmarks

Before you check out the dual graphics benchmarks please bear in mind the following limitations that we had to deal with:

  • The fastest available ATI Crossfire Master graphics card is still the Radeon X850, which is the reason why we picked it for benchmarking. X1800 Master cards will be available in early December, and obviously, these are going to speed up the ATI benchmark numbers quite a bit.
  • The graphics cards we picked to compare ATI to were two NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT models. These are fast enough to outperform ATI's X850 family; any 7800 GTX or GTX 512 would be even faster.
