First: I said that gpureview was a joke when they were comparing 7600GS and 8500GT (both were nvidia video cards !!)


Second: If you look at spec you would think that 8500GT is better than 7600GS but in gaming 7600GS outperforms 8500GT.
The same thing applied to 7600GT vs 6800Ultra and HD2900XT vs 8800

So, yea gpureview and 3dmark are joke

You need to look at gaming benchmarks, not at 3dmark or video card specs




I totally agree with you

I actually look at gpureview look at benchmarks and look at 3dmark and get an overall idea of the performance of the card and see if it is good enough for me right now my 8800GTS 320MB is fine until they release better cards then I will pick up one of those to play crysis maxed. However I ddint compare everything in that thread you posted but you are right gpu review can be wrong sometimes. EDIT: I just saw skidudes post and he is absolutely right.

3dmark is just chicken scratch IMO. What does 3000 or 6000 points tell you of system performance? Nothing at all. It can be a cool competitive app, But other than that i don't see any use to it.

Now Regular ol' benchmarks, can't beat those, FPS actually matter. ;)

My only gripe about GPUreview is that many people around here tend to post a link to two sets of cards when a question is asked about which is better. Op goes Huh, I sigh, and point him to something that actually shows the difference.
 
*sigh*
we've gone a bit of the topic and down the fanboy calling, name hurling route....again
