Graphic Cards Geforce 6600bgt vs Radeon 9800pro

i did try on 1024 res before 1600 obviously. but with 8x aniso. & the 6600gt won. if i dont turn these options on, there is no point is it.

it will then be like comparing a gf4ti4600 & a 9700pro on 640 or 800res without aa. but still the 9700pro would win hands down.

hl2 & d3 both work perfectly on 1600res & 8x anisotropic. no jerks at all. & over 30 fps easily. its more around 60 but goes down sometimes. there were jerks in hl2 though when i had 512 ram, but with 1gig they all went away.

farcry not meant to work on this card @ 1600res and smooth.

anyways its 955b. the newer 1's are called mb i think. i got this 19" long back.
 
I get around 25 - 30 FPS on HL2 at 1280 *1024 @ 16x AF, 8x AA... That game is really optimised for ATI cards, as any other game would choke at those setting on a 9800 pro...
 
Why would anyone want to use 2xaa in hl2, when it's smooth at 4xaa on 9800 pro's and 6600 gt's alike.

nvidia's 2x quincunx is another very underrated antialiasing method, sure it blurs the image very slightly but certain games actually look better this way than with normal 2x aa.
Farcry being one of them, the image is totally smoothed out, no shimmering 3d vegetation at long distances.
 
someone would want to use 2x fsaa on hl2 cause he is also using 16x aniso. since i dont like playing fps games on lower fps i rather play on 2x than 4x with 16x aniso.

will try farcry with 2x q and see. goddamn dvd is with a friend.
 
@stormblast

are you able to play hl2 with aa and af off at 1600*1200,maxed or 1280*1024 with 4xaa and 8xaf,maxed getting >30fps and smooth play?

also,which drivers do you use?

also,how much diff inperformance is there between 900mhz and 1000mhz in geforce 6600gt?
how mcuh better does your gt perform than your radeon 9800pro?why did you upgrade in the first place?

all these games are at highest quality settings of the game i think with drivers set to quality perhaps and not highest qulaity in driver setting probably.

aa and af if used in all games must/should be fsaa 4x + af 8x/16x and don't rely on the ones mentioned even below if it is used it should be this and more accuracy may prove fallacious.

games radeon 9800pro played at xbitlabs settings:
1280*1024,fsaa 4x + af 8x/16x
COD:United Offensive,>50fps while geforce 6600gt got about 39,with 900mhz memory though
doom3,1024,maxed,about 42fps
ut04,1280*1024,fsaa 4x + af 8x/16x,>50fps
halo:combat evolved,1024,maxed,>50fps

far cry,1280*1024,>50
1024,fsaa 4x + af 8x/16x,>40

painkiller ,1600*1200,fsaa 4x + af 8x/16x,>50
