ATi's X800 Pulls Off Another Coup in the Graphics Performance War

Farcry Cooler01 - Normal Quality

The Radeon X800 XT once again continues strong in FarCry, this time the indoor level, followed by the GeForce 6800 Ultra. Compared to the Radeon 9800XT, the X800 Pro also makes a very impressive showing.

Note: The Radeon 9800XT and the X800 cards offer higher image quality in FarCry. We are not certain whether the GeForce 6800 Ultra benefits from its lower-precision shaders, and to what degree. See the Image Quality section for more details.

As they say, it's lonely at the top. This couldn't be truer for the Radeon X800 XT, which sits at the top of this benchmark, looking down on the GeForce 6800 Ultra, which in turn only barely comes in ahead of the "smaller" X800 Pro.
